Capo 1
 
[Intro]
C                   G
Hey ahooo hey-o hey-ooo
C                   G
Hey ahooo hey-o hey-ooo
 
[Verse 1]
F           C         G
I was born 16 years ago
     F            C              G
So I know what it means to feel pain
         Dm            C             G
And I’ve lived a life, long and rich enough
        Dm                  C           G
To have felt the slings and arrows of oppression
F        C                 G
Military drums kick in at once
F                     C           G
Because they sound triumphant and grand
    Dm      C                 G
Big outdoor reverb to make it sound like we’re in a field
F               C                G
Like we’re some kind of marching band
 
[Prechorus]
Dm                 C
Images of sporting victory
F                              G
Confused backdrop glamourising war
F                                      C
But the old kind of war, not the awful 20th century kind
G
Like the crusades
G
Or The American Civil War
G
Or a naval battle
N.C.
Or some roman shit
 
[Chorus]
          F                    C
We Are So Young, You Are So Inspired
              F                     C
We’ve come so far, we won’t be held back
              F                C
You Are So Inspired, We Are So Young
             F                  C
The World is ours, we have life experience
 
[Verse 2]
F          C                 G
Drums that you’d describe as tribal
F                            C      G
They’re so low that we don’t need a bassist
Dm                       C               G
But if you stop to think about how we’re using them
F                  C          G
You might say it’s borderline racist
F         C                  G
20 layers of my voice plus a choir
F                    C           G
Because choirs sound epic and majestic
Dm             C  G
Stereo panning at 100%
F                            C         G
Because the wider it is, the bigger it feels

[Chorus]
          F                 C
We Are So Young, You Are So Inspired
          F                    C
We know nothing and yet you’re inspired
           F                   C
You Are So Inspired, We Are So Young
          F                   C
We’re not Naive, we know what Naive means
 
[Patter]
F
And I’m singing in a patter cause we’re gonna drop the music
           G
Cause I’ve always found that setting things syllabically is memorable
    C                                                        F
and wonderful that I can use so many words to say nothing at all
F       C  F  C F C F C
High nooooooote
 
[Chorus]
          F                   C
We are so young You are so inspired
                   F                       C
We’ve made so much money, you’re eating it up
              F                C
You are so inspired, we are so young
                F                   C
We’re just like you, but also we’re better
