Billy Joel - Only the good die young

^FCome out Virginia^C don't let m^Ame wait You^F Catholic girls start ^Gmuch too lat^Ce But^F sooner or later it c^Comes down to ^Amfate I^F might as well be the o^Gne

They ^Fshowed you a statue and ^Ctold you to ^Ampray They ^Fbuilt you a temple and^G locked you ^Caway But ^Fthey never told you the ^Cprice that you pay ^Am For ^Fthings that you might have ^Gdone

For only the good die ^Cyoung ^Fthat's what I^G said Only the ^Cgood die young ^Fonly the ^Ggood die^C young

You might have^F heard I run with a ^Cdangerous^Am crowd We ^Fain't too pretty we ^Gain't too^C proud We ^Fmight be laughing a^G bit too ^Amloud But ^Fthat never hurt no ^Gone

So ^Fcome on Virginia ^Cshow me a ^Amsign S^Fend up a signal I'll ^Gthrow you the l^Cine The ^Fstained-glass curtain you're ^Chiding be^Amhind N^Fever lets in the ^Gsun

Darlin' only the good die ^Cyoung ^Fwhoa ^Goh Only the ^Cgood die ^Fyoung only the good^G die y^Coung

You got a n^Gice white dress and a pa^Frty on your confir^Cmation You got a b^Drand new soul and a ^Fcross of gold But Vir^Gginia they didn't give you q^Fuite enough infor^Cmation You didn't ^Dcount on me when you were counting on your ^Frosary

^COh^Dm oh^C o^Gh And they ^Fsay there's a heaven for ^Cthose who will ^Amwait S^Fome say it's better but^G I say it ^Cain't I'd rather ^Flaugh with the sinners than ^Gcry with the ^Amsaints The ^Fsinners are much more ^Gfun

For only the good d^Cie young ^Fthat's what I ^Gsay Only the good^C die young^F only the good^G die y^Coung

You say your ^Gmother told you all that I could ^FGive you was a reput^Cation She never ^Dcared for me but did she ever ^Fsay a prayer for me

^COh^Dm oh^C o^Gh Come out come out com^Fe out Virginia don'^Ct let me wait^Am You ^FCatholic girls start ^Gmuch too ^Clate But ^Fsooner or later it ^Ccomes down to ^Amfate I ^Fmight as well be the ^Gone

For only the good die ^Cyoung ^Fthat's what I ^Gsay Only the ^Cgood die young ^Fonly the ^Ggood die ^Cyoung
