no capo!

[chorus]

G C
I’m not afraid of getting older
G Em
I’m one less day
G
From dying young, i see the light
C G
Go past my shoulder
Em
I’m one less day
G
From dying young

[verse (1)]

G
I see my life
C G
Like a train with a one-way track
D
I’ve made mistakes
C G
And i couldn’t take ’em back

G
And i’ve been runnin’ ’round in circles
C G
’til i’m dizzy, i can’t lie
D
But every night i
C G
Go to sleep’s a day that i survive

[chorus]

G C
I’m not afraid of getting older
G Em
I’m one less day
G
From dying young, i see the light
C G
Go past my shoulder
Em
I’m one less day
G
From dying young

[verse (2)]

G
And i’ve seen my friends
C G
Fall away before their time
D
And i’ve been afraid
C G
That i may follow in their light
G
So i drink and love and whisper
C G
All the things i know are right
D
Someday i will leave this world
C G
But maybe not tonight

[chorus]

G C
I’m not afraid of getting older
G Em
I’m one less day
G
From dying young, i see the light
C G
Go past my shoulder
Em
I’m one less day
G
From dying young ( yeah! )

[bridge]

G C G
All my life i have been wandering
C G
Burning up – my candle like
D
My time just won’t end

G
And i’ll keep burning ’til
C G
There’s nothing left
Em
Praying that tomorrow
G
I can do it all again
Em
And if i get tomorrow
C G
I will do it all again

[chorus]

G C
I’m not afraid of getting older
G Em
I’m one less day
G
From dying young, i see the light
C G
Go past my shoulder
Em
I’m one less day
G
From dying young

G C
I’m not afraid of getting older
G Em
I’m one less day
G
From dying young, i see the light
C G
Go past my shoulder
Em
I’m one less day
G
From dying young ( from dying young! )
Em
I’m one less day
G
From dying young ( from dying young! )

Hey!
