Alphaville - Forever Young Chords

[intro]
C  G  Am  F  G  Dm  F  Am  G

[verse 1]
C                   G
  Let's dance in style,
                  Am
let's dance for a while
Heaven can
F                             G
wait we're only watching the skies
                Dm
Hoping for the best,
                  F
but expecting the worst
Are you gonna drop the
Am          G
bomb or not?
C            G                      Am
  Let us die young or let us live forever
                  F
We don't have the power,
                 G
but we never say never
             Dm                 F
Sitting in a sandpit, life is a short trip
                    Am     G
The music's for the sad man
C           G                         Am
   Can you imagine when this race is won
                F               G
Turn our golden faces into the sun
              Dm                        F
Praising our leaders, we're getting in tune
                     Am             G
The music's played by the... the madman

[chorus 1]
C           G
   Forever Young
          Am         F
I want to be Forever Young
G                       Am
  Do you really want to live forever?
F         G
  Forever,  we’ll never
C          G
   Forever Young,
          Am         F
I want to be Forever Young
G                       Am
  Do you really want to live forever?
F  G         C
     Forever Young.

[break]
G  F  G

[verse 2]
C               G
 Some are like water,
                  Am
some are like the heat
           F                       G
Some are a melody and some are the beat
          Dm                     F
Sooner or later they all will be gone
          Am             G
Why don't they stay young?
C                     G             Am
  It's so hard to get old without a cause
                F                      G
I don't want to perish like a fading horse
              Dm              F
Youth’s like diamonds in the sun
                   Am     G
And diamonds are forever
C            G                         Am
  So many adventures couldn’t happen today
        F                  G
So many songs we forgot to play
        Dm                         F
So many dreams swinging out of the blue
                    Am    G
We’ll let them come true

[chorus 2]
C           G
   Forever Young
          Am         F
I want to be Forever Young
G                       Am
  Do you really want to live forever?
F           G
  Forever,  we’ll never
C          G
  Forever Young,
          Am         F
I want to be Forever Young
G                        Am
   Do you really want to live forever?
F        G
 Forever, or never forever
C          G
   Forever Young
          Am          F
I want to be Forever Young
G
   Do you really want to
Dm              F  G
live forever?
