Only The Good Die Young
Billy Joel
C(hold)
A#Come out Virginia, Cdon't let me Dmwait
You A#catholic girls start Cmuch too Flate
Aw but A#sooner or later it Ccomes down to Dmfate
A#(hold) C(hold)
I A#might as well be the Cone
Well, they A#showed you a statue, Ctold you to Dmpray
They A#built you a temple and Clocked you Faway
Aw but A#they never told you the Cprice that you Dmpay
A#(hold) C(hold)
For A#things that you might have Cdone
Only the good die Fyoung A#that?s What I CSaidF
Only the Fgood die A#young only the Cgood die Fyoung
You might have A#heard I run with a Cdangerous Dmcrowd
We A#ain't too pretty we Cain't too Fproud
We A#might be laughing a Cbit too Dmloud
A#(hold) C(hold)
Aw but that never hurt no one
So come A#on Virginia Cshow me a Dmsign
A#Send up a signal I'll Cthrow you a Fline
The A#stained-glass curtain you're Chiding Dmbehind
A#(hold) C(hold)
A#Never lets in the Csun
Darlin' only the good die Fyoung A#whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, CwhoaF
I tell ya only the Fgood die A#young only the Cgood die Fyoung
C(hold) A#(hold)F
You got a Cnice white dress and a A#party on your Fconfirmation
You got a Gbrand new soul, hmmm and a A#cross of gold
C(hold) A#(hold)F
But CVirginia they didn't give you A#quite enough Finformation
You didn't Gcount on me when you were counting on your A#rosary COh C/A#whoa, Fwhoa
They A#say there's a heaven for Cthose who will Dmwait
A#Some say its better but I Csay it Fain't
I'd rather A#laugh with the sinners than Ccry with the Dmsaints
A#(hold) C(hold)
The A#Sinners are much more Cfun
You know that only the good die Fyoung A#oh whoa CbabyF
I tell ya only the Fgood die A#young only the Cgood die Fyoung
C(hold) A#(hold)FGA#
C(hold) A#(hold)F
You say your Cmother told you all that I could A#give you was a Freputation
Aw she never Gcared for me but did she ever say a A#prayer for me COh C/A#whoa, Fwhoa
A#Come out come out come out CVirginia don?t Dmlet me wait
You A#catholic girls start Cmuch too Flate
A#Sooner or later it Ccomes down to Dmfate
