[Verse 1]
B            E    B
We were young, unafraid
        F#              B
We were finding our own way
B               E             B
There is no wind, there is no rain
       F#
In the eye of the hurricane
G#m            F#/A#
Every time you climb that mountain
B                   E
There's another one left to climb
G#m              F#/A#
Don't go looking for tomorrow
B             F#
Leaving yesterday behind
[Chorus]
B             E
Writing every page together
E                      F#
Those days were not to last forever
G#m      B      E
Diamonds in the rough
E       F#   B
When we were us
B                  E
Burn the house and torch the skyline
E                   F#
There was more than fire in my eyes
G#m        B         E
Love meant more than lust
E       F#   B
When we were us
[Verse 2]
B         E           B
We were one, born and raised
          F#                       B
More than blood runs through these veins
B           E             B
Cuts can heal, scars will fade
        F#
What we had will never change
G#m              F#/A#
Seasons pass and time will move on
B                      E
You don't ever have to let it go
G#m          F#/A#
You can only go so far now
B                   F#
Till you're on your way back home
[Chorus]
B             E
Writing every page together
E                      F#
Those days were not to last forever
G#m      B      E
Diamonds in the rough
E       F#   B
When we were us
B                  E
Burn the house and torch the skyline
E                   F#
There was more than fire in my eyes
G#m        B         E
Love meant more than lust
E       F#   B
When we were us
[Bridge]
E                     F#       G#m
Memories are nothing more than ghosts that we let in
F#/A#      B                     F#
     Don't be afraid of them, do you remember when
[Solo]
B E F# G#m B E F#
[Chorus]
B             E
Writing every page together
E                      F#
Those days were not to last forever
G#m      B      E
Diamonds in the rough
E       F#   B
When we were us
B                  E
Burn the house and torch the skyline
E                   F#
There was more than fire in my eyes
G#m        B         E
Love meant more than lust
