[Intro 1]
[E][F#dim][Am][E]
[Am]

[Verse 1]
[E]Girl,
we made it to the top
[Am]We went so high, we couldn't stop
We [E]climbed the ladder [F#dim]lead
ing [Am]us n[E]owhere
Two of us to[F#m]gether[A][Am]
Building castles in the [E]air[Am][D]

[Verse 2]
[G]We spun so fast, we couldn't tell
[Cm]The gold ring from the carousel
[G]How could we know the[Cm] ride
would turn [G]out [B]bad
Everything [Em]we wanted[G]
[A]Was everything [Dsus4]we had[D]

[Verse 3]
I miss the hungry [C]years
(I miss the hungry years)
The once upon [Cm]a time (once upon a time)
[G]The lovely long ago
(lovely long ago)
We didn't have a [A]dime
Those days of me and [Am]you[Dsus4]
We [Cm]lost along the way
[G]

[Verse 4]
How could I be so [C]blind
(how could I be so blind)
Not to see [Cm]the door
(not to see the door)
Closing on [G]the world?
(Closing on the world)
I now hunger [A]for
Looking through my [Am]tears[C][Dsus4]
I [Cm]miss the hungry years
[G][F#dim][B]

[Verse 5]
[E]We shared our daydreams one by one
[Am]Making plans was so much fun
[E]We set our goals and r[Am]eached
the highest [E]star
But the thing[A]s that we were a[F#m]fter
[Am]Seem much better from afar[E][Am][D]

[Verse 6]
But [G]here we stand just me and you
With [Cm]everything and nothing, too
It [G]wasn't worth the [Cm]price
we had [G]to pay
[B]Honey, take [Em]me home[G]
Let's [A]go back to yester
[Dsus4]day[C][Dsus4][C][D]

[Verse 7]
I miss the hungry [C]years (I miss the
hungry years)
The once upon a [Cm]time
(once upon a time)
The lovely long [G]ago
(lovely long ago)
We didn't have a [A]dime
Those days of me and [Am]you[Dsus4]
We [Cm]lost along the way
[G]

[Verse 8]
How could I be so [C]blind
(how could I be so blind)
Not to see [Cm]the door (not to
see the door)
Closing on [G]the world?
(Closing on the world)
I now hunger [A]for
Looking through my [Am]tears
(looking through [Dsus4]my tears)
I [Cm]miss the hungry [G]years (I miss
[Cm]the hungry [G]yea[Cm]rs)

[Verse 9]
I miss the [Cdim]hungry [G]years
