1. A little boy of nine years old, the whole world in his hands
   G                                         C
   Trying to toss that ball across the yard, a game of catch with my old man
   Ami                            C
   He'd always say i'm sorry every time he had to leave
   Ami                                       C
   And I was much to young to understand what he would say to me

   D                                      C
R: When you're young you always think the sun is gonna shine
   D                                   C
   There come a day you'll have to say hello to goodbye
   D                               C
   Sit down son come take my hand, look me in the eye
           Ami             C                          G
   Take these words promise me your gonna live before you die

   G                          G
2. I was barely seventeen, the summer of seventy nine
   G                           G
   Already I was feeling like I was running out of time
   Ami                                       C
   I had this girl we fell in love, or should I say that she had me
   Ami                                         C
   Then one fateful night changed our lives and made a memory

R: When youre young you always think the sun is gonna shine
   There will come a day you'll have to say hello to goodbye
   She laid me down she took my hand and looked me in the eye
   And just before she kissed me she said you're gonna live before die

G 

       Ami      C       D
*: You learn to love to live
       Ami       C      D
   You fight and you forgive
       Ami        C          D
   You learn whats wrong and right
             Ami      C      G
   You gotta live before you dieee

G                                        C
Ive made mistakes I've caught my breaks, but i've got no regrets
        G                                    C
Theres some things I don't remember but one thing I dont forget

R: When you're young you always think the sun is gonna shine
   There will come a day you'll have to say hello to goodbye
   Shout it out let someone somewhere know that your alive
   Take these words wear them well, you gotta live before you die

*: You learn to love to live
   You fight and you forgive
   You face the darkest night
   Just live before you die
