[A]
Oh, [D] very young, what will you [E] leave us this [F#m] [D] time?
[E] You're only dancing [A] on this earth for a short [D] while
And though your dreams may [E] toss and turn you now
They [A] will vanish [D] away like [A] your dad's best jeans
[D] Denim blue, [A] fading up [D] to the sky
[A] And though you want them to last forever
[D] You know [B] you [E] never will, you know you never will
[A] [E] And the patches make the goodbye [A] harder still

Oh, very [D] young, what will [E] you leave us [F#m] this [D] time?
[E] There'll never be a [A] better chance to change your [D] mind
And if you want this [E] world to see better days
Will you [A] carry the [D] words of [A] love with you?
Will [D] you ride the [A] great white bird into [D] heaven?
[A] And though you want to last forever
You [D] know [F#m] you never [E] will, you know you never [F#] [E] will
And the goodbye makes the journey [A] harder still
