[Strophe]
G       C 
Oh very young 
              D             Em  C 
What will you leave us this time 
D           D7              G                 C 
You re only dancing on this earth for a short while 
                                    D 
And though your dreams may toss and turn you now 
          G       C             G 
They will vanish away like your daddy s best jeans 
      C           G         C 
Denim blue fading up to the sky 
               G                    G7 
And though you want them to last forever 
    C         A7    D 
You know they never will 
  
You know they never will 
                         D7             G 
And the patches make the goodbye harder still

G       C 
Oh very young 
              D             Em  C 
What will you leave us this time 
         D          D7     G                     C 
There ll never be a better chance to change your mind 
                                    D 
And if you want this world to see a better day 
         G         C        G 
Will you carry the words of love with you 
         C        G                     C 
Will you ride the great white bird into heaven 
               G               G7 
And though you want to last forever 
    C        A7    D 
You know you never will 
  
You know you never will 
                          D7             G 
And the goodbye makes the journey harder still

Oh very young 
              D             Em  C 
What will you leave us this time
