Intro
A# F
[Verse 1]
A#
It was you and me
A#
Sitting in an apple tree
A#
At the summer's end
D# F
We were only seventeen
Gm A# Dm
We held on so tight, that September night
D#
Then you promised me
[Chorus]
F A# D#
We're never getting older we're never gonna be that way
A# D# F
Remember when I told ya we would make it out someday
Gm A# Dm
Let them say we're crazy, 'cause we already won
D# F A#
When you promised me, we'd be forever young
[Verse 2]
F A#
I got your letter
D#
I can't seem to put it down
A#
It makes it better
D# F
To have a piece of you around
A#
They're all just strangers
D#
Their words don't mean a thing
A#
I swear I'll die here
D# F
I swear that I'd do anything
Gm Dm
To be back again, at the summer's end
D#
When you promised me
[Chorus]
F A# D#
We're never getting older, we're never gonna be that way
A# D# F
Remember when I told ya we would make it out someday
Gm A# Dm
They still say we're crazy and I still say we won
D# F
When you promised me, we'd be forever--
[Bridge]
D# A#
Sooner or later-time gets the best of you
D# A#
I should've known better-you gotta do what you gotta do
D#
If I had me a river
Gm
I'd sit and watch it run by
F
I'd never let it run dry
D#
I'm never gonna say goodbye
A# F A# D#
[Chorus]
F A# D#
We're never getting older we're never gonna be that way
A# D# F
Remember when I told ya we would make it out someday
Gm A# Dm
Let them say we're crazy, 'cause we already won
D# F A#
When you promised me, we'd be forever young
[Outro]
A#
Forever young
A#
Forever young
A#
Forever young
A#
Forever young
D#
Forever young
