Jethro Tull: Too Old to Rock 'n' Roll: Too Young to Die chords
Start Jamming...
Uh, can't help but notice that we're all getting a little older.
Only a few months back I heard that Mick Jagger, God bless him, is now 65 years old.
Brilliant!
Still jumping around the stage just like a young man.
So, it's quite obvious that Mick Jagger is not too old to rock and roll.
This is a song written back in 1975 in Montreux, Switzerland.
Too old to rock and roll, too young to die!
[Cm]
[Ab] [Fm]
[Eb] [Db] [F]
[G] [C] The [F] old [C] rocker wore [G] his [C] head too [Bb] [Am] long
[Dm] Wore his [G] trouser cuffs too tight
[C] [Bb] [C] [G] Unfashionable, [C] took [Bb] the [Am] hint
[Dm] Drank his [G] ale too light
Her [C] desk [G] had [D] felt buckled [G] [F] Yesterday's [Em] dreams
The [Am] transport cab dropped [D] in a zoom
[G] [C] Ringing notes [G] [D] changed in his level
[G] So [Em]
unseasoned, his [Am] post-war [D] vaguely
[B] [F] He [Bb] was too [C] [D] old [F] to rock [Bb] and [F] roll
[Eb] [A] He was too [Dm] young to die
[F] Yes, [Bb] he was too [C] [Gm] old [F] to [Bb] rock and [F]
[Eb] roll
[Bb] He was too [F] young to die
[G] So [C] the [F] old [C] rocker [G] gets [C] out his [Bb] fine [Am] man tank
To make a [Dm] ton before he takes [G] his leave
[F]
[C] Upon [F] the [C] A1 [G] by [C] [Bb] Scott's [Am] Corner
[Dm] Just like it [G] used to be
And [C] as he [G] [D] flies, tears [G] in [Em] his eyes
His windward [Am] words echo the final [D] take
[G] And he [C] hits a [G] trunk road [D] doing around [G] [Em] 120
With [Am] no room [D] left to break
[Eb] [F] And he [Bb] was too [C] old [F] to rock [Bb] and [F] roll
[Eb] [A] He was too [Dm] young to die
[F] Yes, [Bb] he was [C] too [F] old to [Bb] rock and [F] roll
[Eb] [Bb] But he was too [F] young to die
No, [Bb] you're never [C] too [F] old to rock [Bb] and [F]
[Eb] roll
[Bb] If you're too [F] young to die
[Bb] No, you're [C] never too [F] old to rock and [Eb] roll
[Bb] If you're too [F] young to die
