Bridge:
G
Live while you can
C             G
Every day's a holiday

These are the golden years

And they won't be coming around again
          C
So little time to be wild and free
        G/B
So many things that you want to be
          Am                C       D      G
So little space between the cradle and the grave
        C           G
But the minutes are ticking away

These are the special times

And they won't be coming around again, woh oh woh

But I'm feeling good inside
Em                               G
The consequence of love and pain
A       Em                              A G
And I'm not the one who takes the blame

My head is on another planet

A simple trade in real affection

And I'm not alone in the twilight zone
