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

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

Oh, very young, [E] what will you leave [A] us this time?
