The Killers

When You Were Young

capo IV

You sit there in your heartache

Waiting on some beautiful boy to

To save you from your old ways

You play forgiveness, watch it now, here he comes

He doesn`t look a thing like Jesus

But he talks like a gentleman

Like you imagined when you were young

Can we climb this mountain I don?t know

Higher now than ever before, aah

No, we can make it if we take it slow

G c

Let`s take him easy, easy now, watch it go

We`re burning down the highway skyline

On the back of a hurricane that started turning

When you were young

When you were young

And sometimes you close your eyes and see

The place where you used to live

When you were young

Ami

They say the devils water it ain?t so sweet

You don`t have to drink right now

But you can dip your feet

Every once in a little while

(x3)

You sit there in your heartache

Waiting on some beautiful boy to

To save you from your old ways

You play forgiveness, watch it now, here he comes

He doesn`t look a thing like Jesus

But he talks like a gentleman

Like you imagine when you were young

(he talks like a gentleman like you imagine ) when you were young

I said

He doesn?t look a thing like Jesus

He doesn`t look a thing like Jesus

But more than you`ll ever know
