G Em C Bm G Am Without shame, two outfits then to my name C G Em You'd end up in one when you'd stay C Bm G Am C We had nowhere to go and every desire for going there I heard once, it's the comforts that make us feel numb We'd go out with no way to get home And we'd sleep on somebody's floor and wake up feeling like a millionaire Bm C D Em Wish I had known it was just our turn (We just got by) Bm C D Em Being blamed for a world we had no power in (But we tried) Bm C D Em You and I had nothin' to show (We didn't know) D But the best of the world in the palm of our hands (Anything darlin') Chorus: G Em C G Am And darlin', I haven't felt it since then C G I don't know how the feelin' ended Em C Bm But I know being reckless and young G Am C Is not how the damage gets done One time we would want for nothin' (One time we had it all, love) We knew what our love was worth (When we had nothing) Now we're always missing something (I miss when) I miss when we did not need much Oh, if the car ran, the car was enough If the sun shone on us, it's a plus And the tank was always filled up Only enough for our gettin' there That first car was like wings on an angel (You flew away) Before the whole wide world got too thin (From me then) I swear goodwill kept up the engine You were steerin' my heart like a wheel in your hands (Turn back, darling) Chorus G Em C Bm C D Em All I needed was someone G Em C Bm C D G When the whole wide world felt young All I needed was someone When the whole wide world felt young You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsAm  Bm  C  D  Em  G  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
