Intro: G2  D/F#  Em  C2

G2                 D/F#
Here's to the twilight 
Em                C2
Here's to the memories 
G2                  D/F# 
These are my souvenirs 
Em                 C2
My mental pictures of everything 

G2                 D/F#
Here's to the late nights 
Em                C2
Here's to the fire light 
G2                  D/F#
These are my souvenirs 
Em                 C2
My souvenirs 

              Em                          C2
I close my eyes and go back in time 
                     G                          D
I can see you smiling, you're so alive 
                  Em                        C2
We were so young, we had no fear 
       G2                         D                                G2              D/F#  Em  C2
We were so young, we had no idea that life was just happening 
                    G2               D/F#  Em  C2           
Life was just happening 

G2                  D/F#
Here's to your bright eyes 
Em              C2
Shining like fireflies 
G2                 D/F#
These are my souvenirs 
Em                      C2
The memory of a lifetime 

G2                  D/F#                         Em
We were wide eyed with everything 
                 C2
Everything around us 
G2             D/F#                              Em
We were enlightened by everything 
        C2
Everything 


                     Em                          C2
So I close my eyes and go back in time 
                     G                          D/F#
I can see you smiling, you're so alive  
                 Em                          C2
I close my eyes and go back in time 
                         G                                 D/F#
You were just a child then, and so was I 

                  Em                        C2
We were so young, we had no fear 
                     G                          D/F#
We were so young, we had no idea 
                     Em             C2  G  D/F#
That nothing lasts forever 
                     Em             C2  
That nothing lasts forever 
             G2                  D/F# 
Nothing lasts, nothing lasts 
              Em             C2       
You and me together 
                    G                D/F#
Were always now or never 

             G2          D/F#  Em  C2
Can you hear me? 
              G2         D/F#  Em  C2
Can you hear me? 

Solo: G2  D/F#  Em C2 (x2)

                Em                           C2
I close my eyes and go back in time 
                     G                          D/F#
I can see you smiling, you're so alive 
                Em                           C2
I close my eyes and go back in time 
                        G                             D/F#
You were wide eyed, you were wide eyed 

                  Em                        C2
We were so young, we had no fear 
                  G                            D/F#
We were so young, we had just begun 
                 Em                           C2
A song we knew but had never sung 
                      G                    D/F#
It burned like fire inside our lungs 

                           Em                          C2                  G2             D/F#
And life was just happening (nothing lasts, nothing lasts forever) 
                           Em                          C2                  G2             D/F#
And life was just happening (nothing lasts, nothing lasts forever) 
                                  G2           D/F#  Em
I wouldn't trade it for anything 
              C2     G2
