[Verse 1]
C
It was you and me
C
Sitting in an apple tree
C
At the summer's end
F            G
We were only seventeen
Am                   C              Em
We held on so tight, that September night
F
Then you promised me


[Chorus]
G                   C                       F
We're never getting older we're never gonna be that way
                C       F                    G
Remember when I told ya we would make it out someday
                   Am               C       Em
Let them say we're crazy, 'cause we already won
         F                    G       C
When you promised me, we'd be forever young

[Verse 2]
G          C
I got your letter
                F
I can't seem to put it down
            C
It makes it better
                   F   G
To have a piece of you around
            C
They're all just strangers
      F
Their words don't mean a thing
  C
I swear I'll die here
  F                 G
I swear that I'd do anything
      Am                 Em
To be back again, at the summer's end
         F
When you promised me

[Chorus]
G                   C                       F
We're never getting older, we're never gonna be that way
                C       F                    G
Remember when I told ya we would make it out someday
                     Am                C      Em
They still say we're crazy and I still say we won
         F                    G
When you promised me, we'd be forever--


[Bridge]
F                             C
Sooner or later-time gets the best of you
  F                                            C
I should've known better-you gotta do what you gotta do
F
If I had me a river
            Am
I'd sit and watch it run by
                 G
I'd never let it run dry
                F
I'm never gonna say goodbye

C   G    C    F

[Chorus]
G                   C                       F
We're never getting older we're never gonna be that way
                C       F                    G
Remember when I told ya we would make it out someday
                   Am               C       Em
Let them say we're crazy, 'cause we already won
         F                    G       C
When you promised me, we'd be forever young

[Outro]

C

C
Forever young
C
Forever young
F
