Intro
[G] [C]
[G]Verse[C]
[G]A little boy of nine years old, [C]the whole world in his hands
[G]Trying to toss that ball across the yard, [C]a game of catch with my old man
[Am]He'd always say i'm sorry every[C] time he had to leave
[Am]And I was much to young to understand what[C] he would say to me
Chorus
[D]When you're young you always think the [C]sun is gonna shine
[D]There come a day you'll have to say [C]hello to goodbye
[D]Sit down son come take my hand, [C]look me in the eye
Take the[Am]se words promise[C] me your gonna live before [G]you die

Verse 2
[G]I was barely seventeen, the[G] summer of seventy nine
[G]Already I was feeling like I[G] was running out of time
[Am]I had this girl we fell in love, or should[C] I say that she had me
[Am]Then one fateful night changed our lives and[C] made a memory
Chorus
When youre young you always think the sun is gonna shine
There will come a day you'll have to say hello to goodbye
She laid me down she took my hand and looked me in the eye
And just before she kissed me she said you're gonna live before die
G for 4 bars
Bridge
You [Am]learn to [C]love to [D]live
You [Am]fight and [C]you for[D]give
You [Am]learn whats[C] wrong and [D]right
You gotta [Am]live befo[C]re you [G]dieee
[G]Ive made mistakes I've caught my breaks, [C]but i've got no regrets
Theres s[G]ome things I don't remember but one t[C]hing I dont forget
Chorus
When you're young you always think the sun is gonna shine
There will come a day you'll have to say hello to goodbye
Shout it out let someone somewhere know that your alive
Take these words wear them well, you gotta live before you die
Bridge
You learn to love to live
You fight and you forgive
You face the darkest night
Just live before you die
