  			Intro: A 

        D                    E             F#m  (D E)  
Oh very young, what will you leave us this time  
            E7              A                  D  
You're only dancing on this earth, for a short while  
                                    E            E7 
And though your dreams may toss and turn you now  
          A       D              A          
They will vanish away, like your Dad's best jeans  
      D           A         D  
Demin blue,fading up to the sky  
               A                  A7      
And though you want him to last forever  
    D       B7    E                            (A E) 
You know he never will, you know he never will  
                                          A  
And the patches make the goodbye, harder still  

Instrumental: E A E A  

        D                    E             F#m  (D E)  
Oh very young, what will you leave us this time  
               E7          A                      D  
There'll never be a better chance, to change your mind  
                              E                E7  
And if you want this world to see a better day  
         A         D        A  
Will you carry the words of love with you  
         D                     A         D  
Will you ride, the great white bird into heaven  
               A                  A7      
And though you want him to last forever  
    D       B7    E                            (A E) 
You know he never will, you know he never will   
                                          A  
And the goodbye makes the journey harder still  

Instrumental: E A E A D E F#m D E A D E E7 

A        D         A                     D  
Will you carry the word of love with you  
               A   A7            D   B7   E  
Will you ride, oh,   oh, oh, oh, oh, oh , oh  

Instrumental: A E A E A  

        D                    E             F#m  (D E)  
Oh very young, what will you leave us this time  
            E7              A                  D  
You're only dancing on this earth, for a short while   
                             E             A    E A 
Oh very young, what will you leave us this time...
