Verse 1-3
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/y/youth_group/forever_young_tab_ver_9.html ]
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?
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
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
Chorus
G G/f# Em Cadd9
Forever young, I want to be forever young
D/F# Em Cadd9 D/F#
do you really want to live forever, forever forever
G G/f# Em Cadd9
Forever young, I want to be forever young

do you really want to live forever? Forever forever
