Verse 1:
A augmentedA            E minorEm
Sometimes I feel so alive
A augmentedA               E minorEm
Sometimes I see so clear
A augmentedA          E minorEm
Just like the way we always were
A augmentedA            E minorEm
So young and free from fear

Bridge:
F# minorF#m     A augmentedA           E minorEm
I lose my fear of war and dying
F# minorF#m     A augmentedA            E minorEm
And all the clouds just disappear
F# minorF#m     A augmentedA         E minorEm
Only my mirror sees me crying

Each time I lose another year

Wouldn't be a drag to be like you
D MajorD               E minorEm

    FF
And telling them what to do

Well I'm gonna stay

We'll all be rock 'n' roll stars
A augmentedA        E minorEm
Immortal on TV

F# minorF#m     A augmentedA             E minorEm
And if you see me looking tired
F# minorF#m     A augmentedA             E minorEm
I've just been sleeping thought the day
F# minorF#m     A augmentedA             E minorEm
But I got something to keep me wired
F# minorF#m     A augmentedA         E minorEm  A augmentedA G+G
we can dance the night away

D MajorD                    A augmentedA G+G
Wouldn't it be a drag to be like them
D MajorD               E minorEm
They're gonna sell out everything
    FF
But I won't get fooled again

Cause I'm gonna be
A augmentedA        E minorEm     x4
Nineteen forever
