Introdução: (C G Am F G Dm F Am) 

(C G Am F G Dm F Am) 
Let's dance in style, lets dance for a while 
Heaven can wait we're only watching the skies 
Hoping for the best but expecting the worst 
Are you going to drop the bomb or not? 

(C G Am F G Dm F Am) 
Let us die young or let us live forever 
We don't have the power but we never say never 
Sitting in a sandpit, life is a short trip 
The music's for the sad men 

(C G Am F G Dm F Am) 
Can you imagine when this race is won 
Turn our golden faces into the sun 
Praising our leaders we're getting in tune 
The music's played by the mad men 


[Refrão]
 (C G Am F G Dm F G) 
Forever young, I want to be forever young 
do you really want to live forever, forever and ever 
Forever young, I want to be forever young 
do you really want to live forever? Forever young 

(C G Am F G Dm F Am) 
Some are like water, some are like the heat 
Some are a melody and some are the beat 
Sooner or later they all will be gone 
why don't they stay young 

(C G Am F G Dm F Am) 
It's so hard to get old without a cause 
I don't want to perish like a fading horse 
Youth's like diamonds in the sun 
and diamonds are forever 

(C G Am F G Dm F Am) 
So many adventures couldn't happen today 
So many songs we forgot to play 
So many dreams swinging out of the blue 
We let them come true 


[Refrão]
(C G Am F G Dm F G) 
Forever young, I want to be forever young 
do you really want to live forever, forever and ever 
Forever young, I want to be forever young 
do you really want to live forever, forever and ever 

Forever young, I want to be forever young 
do you really want to live forever?
