Heaven can wait we're only watching the skies

[Verse]
C                G                      Am
Some are like water, some are like the heat
           F                         G
Some are the melody and some are the beat
               Dm                     F
Sooner or later they all will be gone
                       G    F       G    C
Why don't they stay young?

Youth's like diamonds in the sun
                       G    F       G    C
And diamonds are forever
 
C                G                Am
So many adventures given up today
           F                    G
So many songs we forgot to play
               Dm                      F
So many dreams swinging out of the blue
                       G    F       G    C
Oh let it come true
