Oh very young what will you leave us this time
                      E5     A5                   D5
You're only dancing on this earth for a short while
                                       E5
and though your dreams may toss and turn you now
            A5        D5              A5
they will vanish away like your Dad's best jeans demin blue.
D5        A5         D5
fading up to the sky
                 A5                   A5        D5     B5    E5
and though you want him to last for ever you know he never will.

you know he never will,
                              E5       A5
and the patches make the Goodbye harder still.

There'll never be a better chance to change your mind
                                E5
and if you want this world to see a better day
            A5           D5       A5
will you carry the words of love with you
             D5                  A5          D5
will you ride the great white bird into heaven
                 A5                   A5     D5    B5     E5
and though you want to last for ever you know you never will.

                               E5       A5
and the goodbye makes the journey harder still.

will you ride
