Verse 1:
E A
I wanna be young the rest of my life;
E A
Never say no, try anything twice.
E A
‘Til the angels come and ask me to fly,
E A
Gonna be 18 till I die
18 ’til I die!
Verse 2:
E A D
Can’t live forever, that’s wishful thinkin’.
E A D
Whoever said that must have been drinkin’.
E A
Don’t wanna grow up. I don’t see why.
G A
I couldn’t care less if time flies by.
Chorus:
D G D A
18 ’til I die, gonna be 18 ’til I die.
D G
Yeah, it sure feels good to be alive,
D A
Someday I’ll be 18 going on 55.
D G A
18 ’til I die.
Verse 3: (same as verse 1)
Anyway, I just wanna say
Why bother with what happened yesterday?
It’s not my style, I live for the minute;
If ya wanna stay young, get both feet in it.
18 ’til I die.
Verse 4: (same as verse 2)
A little bit of this,a little bit of that;
A little bit of everything, gotta get on track.
It’s not how you look, it’s what ya feel inside
I don’t care when, I don’t need to know why.
Chorus:(same as before-different ending)
D G A
…18 ’til I die. There’s one thing for sure,
I’m sure gonna try.
Then you play the chorus again without words(instrumental):
D G Em A D G Em A
ENDING:
Yeah don’t worry about the future, forget about the past;
We’re gonna have a ball, yeah, we’re gonna havea blast.
Gonna make it last. Hey, yeah.
