Cm                         G#                             Cm
Where do we go from here? Something came in with the night
Cm                      G#                              Cm
Snow came in heavy, my boys and me wandering blind (yeah)
Cm
Well, it's temporary darling
                      G#                                  Fm
Now that bridge from Brooklyn to Manhattan heard all our lines
Cm                        G#                      Fm
Meant what I said, I want all of this all of the time

Cm           G#
Ooh when I'm gone
                     A#
At the dune with the dawn
            Cm          G#
Well that's all I could want

Chorus:
        Cm
We were young
         G#
We were free, come on now, let it go
        Cm
We were young
         G#
We were free, I was living in the cold,
           A#
I'm coming home
Cm
Perfect line to open with
Her heart was never meant for this
G#
Oooh we're never over it
         Cm
We were young
         G#
We were free (yeah yeah)

All that she said to me stays with me, never to die
Held me brand new in the silence that went through the pines
Like I said already, darling
I don't want you looking back at all the ghosts left behind
Know you'll stay near me so road remains hopeful this time

Chorus

A#                         Cm
Keep it another fortnight, keep it another fortnight
G#
All I'll ever know, baby we were bound to burn
A#                         Cm
Keep it another fortnight, keep it another fortnight
G#
All I'll ever know, baby we were bound to burn
A#
Baby we were bound to burn

Chorus:
We were young, we were free
Come on now, let it go
We were young, we were free
I was living in the cold, I'm coming home
Perfect line to open with
Her heart was never meant for this
Ooh, we're never over it, no
We were young, we were free, yeah-yeah

Oh, when I'm gone
At the dune with the dawn
Well, that's all I could want
