Standard (EADGBE)

Let's start in style, let's dance for a while

 Heaven can wait we're only watching the skies

 Hoping for the best, but expecting the worst

 Are you gonna drop the bomb or not?

Let us stay young or let us live forever

We don't have the power, but we never say never

Sitting in the sandpit, life is a short trip

The music's for the sadman

Can you imagine when this race is won

Turn out all the faces into the sun

Praising our leaders, we're getting in tune

The music's played by the madman

Forever Young

 I want to be Forever Young

Do you really want to live forever?

Forever, you'll never

Forever Young,

 I want to be Forever Young

Do you really want to live forever?

Forever Young.

Some are like water, some are like the heat

Some are a melody and some are the beat

Sooner or later they all will be gone

Why don't they stay young?

It's so hard to get old without a cause

I don't want to perish like a fading horse

Years like diamonds in the sun

And diamonds are forever

So many advantages given up today

So many songs we forgot to play

So many dreams swinging out of the blue

Oh let it come true

Chorus...

Solo...

Chorus...

Greetings
