A Man Who Was Gonna Die Young

Key: G

Introduction:

G                                            C9  
I like fast cars and sharp dreams
D                                         Em  
Chased a lot of crazy things
C9                            G                                    D  
Left behind my share of broken pieces
G                                                 C9  
This morning i turned 36
D                                            Em  
You just remember half of it
C9                                    G                                            D  
You wonder how you out lived hank or Jesus
                        C9                                         G  
I put the rage in the river and the roll in the thunder
          D                                              Em  
But you kept me from going under
C9                              G                            D  
When that current got too heavy
          C9                                            G  
I always thought I'd be a heap of metal
          D                                                      Em  
In a cloud of smoke pushed up to the pedal
C9                                              G                                                 D  
Sold for parts like a junk yard rusted out Chevy
C9                                 G                                    D                                      Em  
Fear I've had none what the hell made you wanna love
C9                         D  
A man who was gonna die young
verse 2
G                                                 C9  
In the mirror I saw my surprise
D                                                              Em  
Who knew gray hairs liked to hide
C9                                 G                                                    D  
On a head didn't think he'd live past thirty
G                                 C9                                      D                                                      Em  
If I make it thirty more it's the brown that you'll be looking for
C9                                                      G                                            D  
As your run your fingers through it and say slow down honey
                        C9                                         G  
I put the rage in the river and the roll in the thunder
          D                                              Em  
But you kept me from going under
C9                              G                            D  
When that current got too heavy
          C9                                            G  
I always thought I'd be a heap of metal
          D                                                      Em  
In a cloud of smoke pushed up to the pedal
C9                                              G                                                 D  
Sold for parts like a junk yard rusted out Chevy
C9                                 G                                    D                                      Em  
Fear I've had none what the hell made you wanna love
C9                         D  
A man who was gonna die young
verse 3/ Outro
G                                                      C9  
Call it intuition or call it crazy
          D                                                    Em  
Just thought by now I'd be pushing up daisies
C9                                            G                                 D  
But i'd gladly stick around if we're together
G                                                              C9  
So baby when you bow your head tonight
D                                                                 Em  
Could you tell the lord I've changed my mind
                     C9              D  
And with you I'd Like to Live Forever
