[Verse 1]
A D
I knew you from the day the door got kicked in
A D E
The gang was hanging around ?cause we had some things to talk about
F#M E D C
You were stoned, from out of town, your head up on the moon
A D D A
You needed some place to hide out and our place would have to do
A D
Pigeon-toed and guilty, just a friend of a friend of a friend
A D E
You?d taken a fall and missed the ground and just kept on going
F#m E D C
We never knew just what it was, you were no Hester Prynne
A D D A
You said something before you left that we all could believe in
[Chorus]
D A G
You said, it?s not how you swim it?s how you hold your breath
D A E
It?s not about playing fair in this life, it's more about cheating death
F#m E D C
If you don?t like gettin? old, well you?ll hate the other choice I?m told
A D D A
Cause it?s a little late to die young (It?s a little too late to die young)
A D D A
Cause it?s a little late to die young (It?s a little too late to die young)
[Verse 2]
A D
The night got long we sang some songs and we shared some stories too
A D E
We popped the top on the last cold pop as the sky was turning blue
F#m E D C
All of a sudden the door crashed and in came six big police man
A D D A
As they carried you away, you said those words again
[Chorus]
D A G
You said, it?s not how you swim it?s how you hold your breath
D A E
It?s not about playing fair in this life, it's more about cheating death
F#m E D C
If you don?t like gettin? old, well you?ll hate the other choice I?m told
A D D A
Cause it?s a little late to die young (It?s a little too late to die young)
A D D A
Cause it?s a little late to die young (It?s a little too late to die young)
[Outro]
A D
One fine day you?re lookin? back
A D
You?ve worked 10 years and you don?t have jack
A D
The dreams you had are wearin? thin
A D
But the loot dream just won?t let you in
It's a little too late!
A D
I knew you from the day the door got kicked in
