The C#m and B in the pre-chorus (and again in the very last line) are each played only once. Everything
else is pretty straightforward. Enjoy!
[Verse 1]
E When you're young you got time A When you're old you've built a life C#m B In between you're just along for the ride E Nothing's in a straight line A Like the wrinkles on your eyes C#m B Try to take it one candle at a time
[Pre-Chorus]
A B When we turn 96 E A With a smile on our lips C#m B E I'll have nothing left to wish
[Chorus]
C#m B E 'Cause people paint pictures of places like this C#m B E People they daydream of the life that we live C#m B E A People they see darkness and light, as opposite sides C#m B But you and I know they're the same
[Verse 2]
E When you're young you got time A When you're old you've built a life C#m B In between you're just along for the ride E Nothing's in a straight line A Like the wrinkles on your eyes C#m B Try to take it one candle at a time
[Pre-Chorus]
A B When we turn 96 E A With a smile on our lips C#m B E I'll have nothing left to wish
[Chorus]
C#m B E 'Cause people paint pictures of places like this C#m B E People they daydream of the life that we live C#m B E A People they see darkness and light, as opposite sides C#m B But you and I know they're the same
[Bridge]
A B We'll dance in the sun 'til the warm evening comes C#m E Then we'll dance by the light of the moon A B We'll follow the thread, sing the songs in our heads C#m E Until all of our best dreams come true
[Verse 3]
E When you're young you got time A When you're old you've built a life C#m B In between you're just along for the ride E Nothing's in a straight line A Like the wrinkles on your eyes C#m B Try to take it one candle at a time
[Outro]
A B When we turn 96 E A With a smile on our lips C#m B E I'll have nothing left to wish
