[Verse 1]
B7                A                  G    C/G
That was the last New Year I'll ever see

            G                  C/G
And I wanna stay on that magic mountain

          G                   C/G
With lost souls and beautiful women

Am                       C/G  G
I drank some of Farmer's potion

            Am             C/G  G
And we were moving in slow motion
[Chorus]
    C/G         G
The slower, the better

    C/G         Em      Am
The slower, the better

                      Am           C/G  G
'Cause there's no one old on magic mountain

               Am                C/G  G
There's no one old, old on magic mountain
[Verse 2]
B7                    A                G  C/G
And that was the very last barn I'm burning

           G            C/G
So for now everyone is dancing

           G                C/G
As if it's any time but the present

           Am                C/G   G
So for now every young thing in my path

                Am             C/G     G
I'll hold their face so long inside my hands
[Chorus]
    C/G         G
The longer, the better

    C/G         Em      Am
The longer, the better

                      Am           C/G  G
'Cause there's no one old on magic mountain

               Am                C/G   G
There's no one old, old on magic mountain
[Verse 3]
B7                    A
The wine has all been emptied

               G    C/G
And smoke has cleared

          G                C/G
As people file back to the valley

       G                    C/G
On the last night of life's party

               Am                       C/G G
These days the years thin till I can't remember

             Am                       C/G  G
Just what it feels like to be young forever
[Chorus]
       C/G      G
So the longer I stay here

    C/G               Em     Am
The longer there's no future

               Am           C/G  G
So I'm growing old on magic mountain

            Am                C/G  G
I'm growing old, old on magic mountain
[Outro] B7 A G C/G (repeat to fade)
