Bm                          Em      Bm                              Em     
There was a time when I was younger, and all the nights and days were long

Bm                       Em         Bm                     Em
And everyday just getting stronger, like a sunflower in the sun, in the sun
Bm Em Bm (F#, Em, D, C#m) [Verse 2]
Bm                          Em        Bm                        Em
  Well Mr Moon was counting backwards,  make the waters ebb and flow

Bm                                        Em                      
  And all the things we could and should have done, 

Bm                                             Em
but them old regrets, well they'll come and go, just come and go
Bm Em Bm (F#, Em, D, C#m) [Chorus]

Oh stay forever young, before a paradise lost and an innocence gone
[Verse 3]
Bm                       Em          Bm                    Em
See the freshness of your young face, like a candle in the wind

Bm                       Em           Bm                           Em
And the brightness of your smiling eyes, their lighting up the room, 
the whole room Bm Em Bm (F#, Em, D, C#m) [Chorus]

So stay forever young, don't you do what I have done

Bm              Em                F#                           Bm
Oh stay forever young, before a paradise lost and an innocence gone
