A C#m F#m Bm7-5 E7
They try to tell us we're too young,
A C#m D F#7
Too young to really be in love;
Bm Bm7-5 E7 Bm7 Bm7-5 E7
They say that love's a word, a word we've only heard
Bm Bm7-5 E7 E+ A F#m7 F#7 Bm7 E7
But can't begin to know the meaning of.
A C#m F#m Bm7-5 E7
And yet we're not too young to know
A A6 A+ D A+ D
This love will last though years may go;
Bm D Dm A AM7 F#7
And then some day they may recall
Bm7-5 E7 E7+ E7 A F#m D E7
We were not too young at all.
(instrumental interlude - first section)
A C#m F#m Bm7-5 E7
And yet we're not too young to know
A A6 A+ D A+ D
This love will last though years may go;
Bm D Dm A AM7 F#7
And then some day they may recall
Bm7-5 E7 Fdim(III) A Cdim D9 Bm7-5 A
We were not too young at all.
