Verse 1:

Dm            G
 I found your letters
C/G         Am
 As I would pack
Dm               G
 Twelve years of memories
C/G        Am
 So neatly stacked
Dm           G                 C     C/B    Am     Em/A Am
 I thought I did what I was supposed to   do
Dm                  G
 But I forgot about you


Chorus 1:

     C         G
But, oh, to be young
   Am       Fmaj7
To feel the changes
C          C/B      Am        Em/A  Am
Fall away, fall away from you
C   C/B   Am   Fmaj7   Am     Em/A  Am
Hmm...


Verse 2:

Dm                G
 To fall from the least
C/G                 Am
 That I'd known the most
Dm              G
 I was happy to leave
C/G         Am
 Behind the ghost
Dm           G                 C     C/B    Am     Em/A Am
 I thought I saw what I was supposed to   see
Dm                  G
 But I forgot about me


Chorus 2:

     C         G
And, oh, to be young
   Am      Fmaj7
To see the changes
C          C/B      Am        Em/A  Am
Fall away, fall away from you
C           G
Oh, just to run
   Am       Fmaj7
To feel the jaded
C          C/B      Am        Em/A  Am
Fall away, fall away from you
C   C/B   Am   Fmaj7   Am     Em/A  Am
Hmm...
C   C/B   Am   Fmaj7   Am     Em/A  Am
Hmm...

 But I forgot about me

But, oh, to be young
   Am      Fmaj7
To see the changes
C          C/B      Am        Em/A  Am
Fall away, fall away from you
C           G
Oh, just to run
   Am       Fmaj7
To feel the jaded
C          C/B      Am        Em/A  Am
Fall away, fall away from you
C   C/B   Am   Fmaj7   Am  Em/A  Am
Ooh...
