C           Bb                F
Young love, wont you come and sit real close
   C
to me?
C                   Bb               F      C
For the first time, Ive got you by my side
C       Bb                 F

      C
shaky knees?
C             Bb                        F     C
Gotta roll the windows down inside your mind

[Chorus]

C                    Bb
Love was the shape we made
C                     Bb
Love was the breath we drew
C               Bb
Youth was in our blood
                 C
And baby we were young
                 Bb
And baby we were young

Nineteen and twenty-three, with just four
      C
years between
C                    Bb         F      C
We fell in love on a Tuesday in July
C                  Bb             F
Your daddy lives so far away, down in
            C
Memphis, Tennessee
C        Bb           F
One day, youre be my bride
      C
Thats right

[Chorus]

C                    Bb
Love was the shape we made
C                     Bb
Love was the breath we drew
C               Bb
Youth was in our blood
                 C
And baby we were young
                 Bb
And baby we were young

[Outro]

C                    Bb
Love was the name we gave
C                   Bb
But love is a shaky thing
C                   Bb
Youre not the one to blame
                   C
Cause baby we were young
                   Bb
Cause baby we were young
