[Verse 1]
E
I'm a young man, baby
E
And a young man I must be
            A
I've got to live young, baby
A
And love young, baby
    E
And see what I can see

[Chorus]
                                    A
So remember that you can't tie a mustang down
        B              E
No, you can't tie a mustang down
                                    A
And you can't keep an ocean in a cup
              E           B       E
Whoa, no, you can't tie a mustang down...or up

[Verse 2]
E
Now I only got one heart, baby
E
And I'm gonna keep it hid
           A
Oh, by the way that I hold you
A
You might think I love you
      E
But I never said I did
E
So don't impose your will upon me
E
I can't stand the sound of chains
          A
Oh, don't try to tame me
A
Or blame me or name me
    E
Oh, baby, ease up on the reins

[Chorus]
                                     A
And remember that you can't tie a mustang down
        B7             E
No, you can't tie a mustang down
                                 A
Oh, you can't put an ocean in a cup
              E           B       E
Whoa, no, you can't tie a mustang down...or up

[Verse 3]
E
I'm a young man, baby
E
And a young man I must be
            A
I've got to live young, baby
A
And love young, baby
    E
And see what I can see

[Chorus]
                                    A
So remember that you can't tie a mustang down

You can't tie a mustang down
                             A
You can't keep an ocean in a cup
              E
Whoa, no, you can't tie a mustang down...or up
