One Flew South - "Too Old To Die Young"

First verse is sung a Capella

If life is like a candle bright
Death must be the wind
You can close your window tight
And it still comes blowing in
So I will climb the highest hill
To watch the rising sun
And pray that I don't feel that chill
'Till I'm too old to die young

Chorus
F Bb C
Let me watch my children grow
G
To see what they become
C F C
Oh Lord don't let that cold wind blow
C G C
'Till I'm too old to die young

Verse 2
C F C
Now I have had some dear sweet friends
G
I thought would never die
C F C
Now all that is left of them
C G C
Is the tear drops in my eye
C F C
If I could have one wish today
G
And know it would be done
C F
I would say every one can stay
C G C
'Till they're too old to die young

Chorus
