Verse:
G Cadd9
They were juniors in high school
G Cadd9
They didn’t know right from wrong
G Cadd9
They went to all the school dances
G Cadd9
And they danced to their favorite song
D C
And Johnny still loves rock and roll
D C
And every night he plays
D C
And some day he will figure out
G Cadd9
Why his best friend had to move away
G Cadd9
They go to lunch and they talk about
G Cadd9
What will happen when they grow old
G Cadd9
They figure they will all be famous
G Cadd9
And they will never have to be alone
D C
But Paul is failing school again
D C
And he still sells his pot
D C
And one day he will realize
G Cadd9
That these jobs don’t offer a lot.
G Cadd9
Chorus:
G
They were still young
Cadd9
And they were so sure
D
That one day they’ll be what they wanna be
G Cadd9
And some day they’ll know
D
That life is not all about rock-n-roll
G Cadd9
And I pray they do well
D Em
Cause now they’re on the verge of breakin down
G Cadd9
They were all still young.
Verse:
G Cadd9
They’ve known each other since third grade
G Cadd9
She was his very first true love
G Cadd9
Everyone thought they’d get married
G Cadd9
And he figured she was sent from above
D C
But every time they talked, they fought.
D C
But they had something special there
D C
Cause they loved each other way too much
G Cadd9
To stop to think or even care.
Chorus 1x
Bridge:
Am D
Best friends may not fight
Am D
Some may never dare
Am D
But when it comes straight down to it
G Cadd9
Real friends wouldn’t care.
Chorus 2x
