Dyin' All Young
Dyin? All Young
Chuck Prophet (2000)
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
He didn't even get to see the summer settin', Dyin' all young
He didn't even get to see the summer settin', Dyin' all young
Gmaj7 CmajGma7 Cmaj7
Well, the telephone rang off the hook while the sun was goin' down
Gmaj7 Cmaj7 Gma7 Cmaj
She never heard her baby callin' now her baby ain't around
Em
It broke his mama's heart something pulled him like the tide
D C
Up on the banks of Methodonia laid down and closed his eyes
D
Summer nights ain't never gonna feel right Dyin' all young, oh
Chorus
Gmaj7 Cmaj7 Gma7 Cmaj7
Wanted to be there in your future want you to see-me-when-you-look-back
Gmaj7 Cmaj7 Gma7 Cmaj7
Want to be around to see you glow, little cowboy shine like lighting through a crack
Em
But you climbed back in that saddle for one more fatal ride
D C
If I had-it-all-to- do it all again I'd lock in you in your room this time
D
Summer nights ain't never gonna feel right Dyin' all young, oh
Chorus x2
Gmaj7 Cmaj7 Gmaj7
Well, I don't like anything I'm seein' I don't like anything at
Cmaj7
all
Gmaj7 Cmaj7 Gmaj7
And when I come across your memory It always turns my skin to
Cmaj7
crawl
Em
I know I should feel lucky, lucky I'm alive
D
One day your love bloomed like a flower that flower up and died
C
We pump so much shit into this river, the river flows into the sea
D C
Every- -day I think about you, could you ever think of me? Oh
Chorus
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
If you were here, I'd pick you up I'd make you say you'd had enough
(He didn't even get to see the summer settin' Dyin' all young)
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
I'd pat your skin pull out your hair. Why'd you go along and leave me
Gmaj7
here?
(He didn't even get to see the summer settin' Dyin' all young)
Cmaj7
Dyin' all young
(He-he didn't, he didn't, he didn't, he didn't)
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
Gonna meet your maker Dyin' all young
(He didn't even get to see the summer)
Chorus x2
