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

Forever young
F#
Forever young
F#
Forever young

Forever young
