Only The Good Die Young

Biography:

Billy Joel (born William Martin Joel on May 9, 1949 in Bronx, New York, USA) is an American pianist, singer-songwriter, and composer. Since releasing his first hit song, "Piano Man," in 1973, Joel has become a multi-million-selling recording artist. Joel recorded many popular hit songs and albums from 1971 until he stopped recording pop/rock music in 1993. He is one of the very few rock (or even pop) artists to have Top 10 hits in the '70s, '80s, and '90s.

F | C/G Am |
Come out Virginia don't let me me wait
F | G C |
You Catholic girls start much too late
F | C/G Am |
But sooner or later it comes down to fate
F | G
I might as well be the one

F | C/G Am |
They showed you a statue and told you to pray
F | G C |
They built you a temple and locked you away
F | C/G Am |
But they never told you the price that you pay
F | G
For things that you might have done
| G | G | C | F | G |
For only the good die young that's what I said
| C | C | F | G |
Only the good die young only the good die young

C | F | C/G Am |
You might have heard I run with a dangerous crowd
F | G C |
We ain't too pretty we ain't too proud
F | G Am |
We might be laughing a bit too loud
F | G
But that never hurt no one

G F | C/G Am |
So come on Virginia show me a sign
F | G C |
Send up a signal I'll throw you the line
F | C/G Am |
The stained-glass curtain you're hiding behind
F | G
Never lets in the sun
| G | G | C | F | G |
Darlin only the good die young woh - oh
| C | C | F | G |
Only the good die young only the good die young

C | G | F | C |
You got a nice white dress and a party on your confirmation
C | D | D | F
You got a brand new soul And a cross of gold
F | G | F | C |
But Virginia they didn't give you quite enough information
C | D | D | F |
You didn't count on me When you were counting on your rosary

| C Dm C G |
Oh oh oh And they
F | C/G Am |
Say there's a heaven for those who will wait
F | G C |
Some say it's better but I say it ain't
| F | G Am |
I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints
| F
The sinners are much more fun
| G | G | C | F | G |
You know only the good die young that's what I say
| C | C | F | G | C |
Only the good die young only the good die young

| G | F | C | C | D | D | F |

F | G |
You say your mother told you all that I could
F | C |
Give you was a reputa-tion
C | D | D | F |
She never cared for me But did she ever say a prayer for me
C Dm C G |
Oh oh oh And they
