G
I wanna say it like Simon would
C7/G
'Cause I was listening this morning
G
On my own thinking if I could
C7/G
I'd be Kathy and make this bus a greyhound
Em                        D
And this sun would always stay down
                           C
And there would be so much time for us
D/A
Time for us

[Pre-Chorus]

G                               C7/G
My hand's out, I wanna throw my cards now
                     G
Making your name our hometown

But all my trains are here
G
Please don't be worried
Em                            D
No doubt I'll find you in our old crowd
                  C          D/A
So many things to say if you stay

[Chorus]

        G
So stay young

I know that I'm talking too much
         C7/G
And I'll get nowhere tryna do it at once
    G
But oh my God, I wanna be someone
        Em
So stay young

With me, 'cause I hope that it's you
          D
That I'll break my back tryna run home to
        C                               D/A
Because oh my God, I want you to be the one
        G
So stay young

       C7/G
Oh-oh-woah-oh
         G
Oh, stay young
    C7/G
Oh, woah

G
I wanna say it like Simon would
C7/G
I wanna make my mother feel things
G
I wanna have the marching band
                                              Em
But right now it's just me and steel strings, lonely
                         D
So when I miss you it is slowly
                           C
'Cause I'm doing good here mostly on my own
D/A
Mostly on my own

[Pre-Chorus]

   G                           C7/G
My hands out, I wanna throw my cards now
                     G
Making your name our hometown

But all my trains are here
G
Please don't be worried
Em                             D
No doubt I'll found you in our old crowd
                  C
So many things to say if you stay

[Chorus]

        G
So stay young

I know that I'm talking too much
         C7/G
And I'll get nowhere tryna do it at once
    G
But oh my God, I wanna be someone
        Em
So stay young

With me, 'cause I hope that it's you
          D
That I'll break my back tryna run home to
        C                               D/A
Because oh my God, I want you to be the one
        G
So stay young

       C7/G
Oh-oh-woah-oh
         G
Oh, stay young
    C7/G
Oh, woah
      Em
(Stay young)

[Bridge]

Em
And I promise I care
  B/D#
I know it's hard, know that I'm never there
     G/D                               A7/C#
But call me from the bathroom when you're low
           C
We'll stay young until we wanna be old
G
Electric blankets so we're never cold
       C                              D
'Cause you have always been my ticket home
              G
And we stayed young

[Chorus]

        G
So stay young

I know that I'm talking too much
         C7/G
And I'll get nowhere tryna do it at once
    G
But oh my God, I wanna be someone
        Em
So stay young

With me, 'cause I hope that it's you
          D
That I'll break my back tryna run home to
        C                               D/A
Because oh my God, I want you to be the one
        G
So stay young

[Outro]

      C7/G
Oh-oh-woah-oh
         G
Oh, stay young
    C7/G
Oh, woah
         Em
Oh, stay young
      D
Oh-oh-woah-oh
      C
(Stay young)
D/A
Oh, oh, oh

Just stay young
