Riff 1 
When we were young nobody died 
And nobody got older 
Riff 1
The toughest kid in the street 
Could always be bought over 
Riff 1
And the first time that you loved 
You had all your life to give 
Riff 2
At least that's what you said 
Riff 1
The first time you got drunk 
You drank pernod and dry cider 
Riff 1
Smashed a window in 
As the police came around the corner 
Riff 3
You didn't have no time to run 
And your dad stood up for you 
As the judge said you're a fool 

G
Babies, sex and flagons, shifting women, getting stoned 
C
Robbing cars, bars and pubs, rubber johnnies, poems 
Am
Starsky and Hutch gave good TV 
D
And Starsky looked like me 

Riff 1
The first time that you stole 
You stole rubber lips and tenners 
Riff 1
Bought a radio then ran away for ever 
Riff 1                     Riff 2			
Never felt so good, never felt so good with you 
Riff 1
When we were young we had no fear 
Of love nor sex nor warnings 
Riff 1
Everyone was hanging out, everyone was sorted 
Riff 3
When we were young nobody knew 
Who you were or what you'd do 
Nobody had a past that catches up on you 

G
Babies, sex and flagons, shifting women, getting stoned 
C
Robbing cars, bars and pubs, rubber johnnies, poems 
Am
Starsky and Hutch gave good TV 
D
And Starsky looked like me 

      G
When we were young
 Em
What might have been 
  C         Am
What might have been
  G 
What might have been 

G
With a start he was awoken 
From the middle of a dream 
Em
He's making movies in his head 
That never will be seen 
C
He's holding Oscars in his hands 
Am
And kissing beauty queens 
What might have been 
What might have been 
     G
When we were young
