Em                                                                   
The desert air was sharp as a knife
                       C         D 
The late autumn sky delivered the night
Em              
As far as I could see the road looked dark
                       C         D 
The only life I knew was about to fall apart

Em 
Time’s ticking and I can’t escape
                       
The pin pulled on a hand grenade
         C         D 
White flags start to raise

[Pre-Chorus 1]
G                       D 
I wonder how it got this way
            C                   G 
I swear it felt just like yesterday
          D 
We were fearless and unafraid

[Chorus 1]
C         Em              G 
Take me back to younger dreams
C         Em              G       D/F#
When times were easy and we believed
          C        Em       G 
Take me back to revive my memory
C               Em            G   D/F# Em  D  C                Em        
I’m digging deep but I am scared that I have lost my younger dreams

[Verse 2]   USE DISTORTION
Em  
Sick and tired trying to survive
                    C         D
I forget how it feels to be alive
Em
I can only hope I’m remembered by
                    C         D
The fearless heart that I once had inside
Em 
Times ticking and I can’t escape

The pin pulled on a hand grenade
         C         D
White flags start to raise

[Chorus 2]
C         Em            G 
Take me back to younger dreams
 C              Em           G     D/F#
When times were easy and we believed
        C        Em         G
Take me back to revive my memory
C             Em                G   D/F# Em  D          Em   D    C  
I’m digging deep but I am scared that I have lost my younger dreams
G   D/F# Em  D 
[Scared that I have lost my younger dreams]

[Pre-Chorus 2]
G                     D 
I wonder how it got this way
             C                 G 
I swear it felt just like yesterday
         D 
We were fearless and unafraid

[Chorus 3]    CLEAN PA YING
C        Em              G
Take me back to younger dreams
C              Em            G        D/F# (stop playing)
When times were easy and we believed
        C         Em          G 
Take me back to revive my memory
C                Em         G   D/F# Em  D
I’m digging deep but I am scared that I have lost my younger dreams
G   D/F# Em  D                       Em   D    C 
[Scared that I have lost my younger dreams]
                    G   D/F# Em  D    C                 Em  
I’m never turning back until I’ve found my younger dreams.
