"Still Young" by Cat Empire (from the album 'Steal This Light')

--Intro--
C#m    E                    B       F#m
C#m    E                    G#m


--Verse 1--
G#m         E               B               F#
    First I saw you standing there, eyes so wild beneath your hair
G#m         E               B               F#
    Coat worn blacker than the sun, shook your head like Strummer strummed
G#m                 E           B               F#
    We stood like soldiers in a line, heard the bells of midnight chime
G#m                 E               B               F#
    We turned grey walls to fields of green, the only fate that we could scream


--Chorus pt1--
C#m                 E           B           F#
    Was while you're still young, find your heart and find your song
C#m              E          F#
    Now where have you gone?

--Chorus pt2--
    G#m                              F#                       B                    E
No matter where you're going, and no matter where you've been, you never needed anybody 
else's call now
G#m                    F#                        B                         E             
           (G#m x 2)
I never met a one like you, never met a one like you, never met a one like you, don't 
bring me down



--Verse 2--
G#m           E                   B                      F#
    There's a dream that haunts my nights, of wild black horses out in flight
G#m             E               B              F#
    The kind of free I'd never been, a kind of beast I'd never seen
G#m         E                B                 F#
    Why do all things end in pain?, I call the ghosts and ask their names
G#m         E                   B              F#
    Is that love you're running from?, if you lead then I will come

--Chorus pt1--
C#m                 E           B           F#
    And while you're still young, find your heart and find your song
C#m              E          F#
    Now where have you gone?

--Chorus pt2--
    G#m                             F#                       B                    E
No matter where you're going and no matter where you've been, you never needed anybody 
else's call now
G#m                    F#                        B                         E

bring me down

bring me down
