Simak lirik dan chord lagu "Younger" dari Ruel:
[Verse 1]
C Dm
You and I used to walk the streets at night
Am
Our parents didn't know, kept the TV going
F
And left on all the bedroom lights
C Dm
And no, I haven't seen you since we lost all our innocence
Am
You left me in the dark while you drink in the park
F
Never be the same again
[Pre-Chorus]
C
You and me were so, so close
Dm
Maybe that's what hurts the most
Am
It's out of my hands, I've done what I can
F
So I just save my breath
[Chorus]
C E Am C7 F
Deep in my heart, I know that it's over
C/E Dm G
Deleted your number so I can't call you
C E Am C7 F
Call you my brother, the way that we used to
C/E Dm G
When we were younger, younger
[Verse 2]
C
I saw you just the other night
Dm
I didn't even recognize you
Am
Find it kind of strange, I guess that people change
F
But I didn't expect you to
[Pre-Chorus]
C
You and me were so, so close
Dm
And maybe that's what hurts the most

It's out my hands, I've done what I can

So I just save my breath

Tryna get in touch with you, I don't know where you've been
Am C7
Have a conversation but you'll never let me in
F C/E
I've tried, I've tried
Dm
I've tried with you a thousand times

Maybe I don't have to play the bad guy in the end

'Cause I've been trying hard enough to be a better friend

I've tried, I've tried

But we're out of time
