We Are Young G Give me a second I I need to get my story straight Em My friends are in the bathroom getting higher than the empire state C my lover she's waiting for me just across the bar D My seats been taken by some sunglasses asking 'bout a scar G and I know I gave it to you months ago I know you're trying to forget Em but between the drinks and subtle things the holes in my apologies C D you know I'm trying hard to take it back Em D So if by the time the bar closes D G C and you feel like falling down C D G I'll carry you home tonight G Em Tonight We are young C D So let's set the world on fire We can burn brighter than the sun G Em Tonight We are young C D So let's set the world on fire We can burn brighter than the sun G Now I know that I'm not all that you got Em I guess that I I just thought maybe we could find a ways to fall apart C But are friends in back So let's raise a cup D Cause I found someone to carry me home G Tonight Em We are young C
