Forever Young Chords

Capo 2nd fret


[Verse 1]

G               D                     
Let's dance in style, lets dance for a 
Em
while
          C                            
Heaven can wait we're only watching the 
 D
skies
              Em                     
Hoping for the best but expecting the 
C
worst
                         D
Are you going to drop the bomb or not?

G          D                      Em
Let us die young or let us live forever
                C                      
We don't have the power but we never say
D
never
               Em                 C
Sitting in a sandpit, life is a short 
trip
                     D
The music's for the sad men


[Chorus]

G       D                  Em       
Forever young, I want to be forever 
C
young
D                     Em            
do you really want to live forever, 
C       D
forever forever
G       D                  Em      C
Forever young, I want to be forever 
young
D                      Em           
do you really want to live forever? 
C         D
Forever forever


[Verse 2]

G                  D                   
Some are like water, some are like the 
Em
heat
                   C                   
Some are a melody and some are the beat
  D
           Em                    C
Sooner or later they all will be gone
                      D
why don't they stay young

G                     D                 
It's so hard to get old without a cause
 Em
               C                     
I don't want to perish like a fleeing 
 D
horse
                Em          C
Youth's like diamonds in the sun
                   D
and diamonds are forever


[Chorus]

G        D                Em       C
Forever young, I want to be forever 
young
D                        Em         
do you really want to live forever, 
C      D
forever Forever
G        D              Em         C
Forever young, I want to be forever 
young
D                        Em         
do you really want to live forever? 
C       D
Forever Forever


[Bridge]

G             D                      Em
So many adventures couldn't happen today
         C                  D
So many songs we forgot to play
          Em                      C
So many dreams swinging out of the blue
                  D
We let them come true


[Chorus]

G       D                Em        C
Forever young, I want to be forever 
young
D                        Em         
do you really want to live forever, 
C       D
forever Forever
G        D              Em         C
Forever young, I want to be forever 
young
D                        Em         
do you really want to live forever? 
C          D
Forever Forever
