The song is quite simple easily played. Just listen to it carefully.
On Verses Em is taken with high G hold.
Intro
G C D
[Verse]
G                   Em    C            D
 We headed straight south in a sundown light
G            Em   C              D
 On highway 61 through the delta night
G              Em            C                D
 We shared the backroads with cardsharks and grifters
G           Em            C         D
 Tent show evangelists and Luke the Drifter
[Bridge]
Hm           Em
What is lost what is missing
Am7               D7   
What's been gone way too long

[Chorus]
G             DF#               C
We had dreams when the night was young
G                   DF#            C
We were believers when the night was young
G                   G DF#         
We could change the world stop the war
C
Never seen nothing like this before
Am7                        D7
But that was back when the night was young

[Verse]
Sign reads God Bless America guns and ammo
I'm not sure that's what He means
Sign reads repent the end is near
I'm not sure that's what we need
[Bridge]
Get your heart beating in the right direction
That's when you make a real connection

[Chorus]
We had dreams when the night was young
We were believers when the night was young
We could change the world stop the war
Never seen nothing like this before
But that was back when the night was young

[Verse]
Now Andy Warhol's in the hotel lobby
He's waiting for the late night muse
But she won't be back before morning
She's gone downtown to hear some blues
[Bridge]
Like the sun rising out of the sea
It's how you embrace the mystery
[Chorus](sing twice)
We had dreams when the night was young
We were believers when the night was young
We could change the world stop the war
Never seen nothing like this before
But that was way back when the night was young

End with G
