Too Old To Rock N Roll Too Young To Die by Jethro Tull
Too Old To Rock N Roll Too Young To Die
Capo:no capo
[Intro]
Cm Ab Fm Ddim Eb Db F
F G
[Verse 1]
C F C G C Bb
The old Rocker wore his hair too long,
Am Dm G
wore his trouser cuffs too tight.
C F C G C Bb
Unfashionable to the end ---
Am Dm G
drank his ale too light.
G C G D G F
Death's head belt buckle --- yesterday's dreams ---
Em Am D
the transport caf' prophet of doom.
G C G D G F
Ringing no change in his double-sewn seams in his
Em Am D
post-war-babe gloom.
[Chorus]
Eb F Bb C Bb F Bb F Eb A Dm
Now he's too old to Rock'n'Roll but he's too young to die.
Eb F Bb C Bb F Bb F Eb Bb F G
yes he was too old to Rock'n'Roll but he's too young to die.
[Verse 2]
C F C G C Bb
He once owned a Harley Davidson
Am Dm G
and a Triumph Bonneville.
C F C G C Bb
Counted his friends in burned-out spark plugs
Am Dm G
and prays that he always will.
G C G D G F
But he's the last of the blue blood greaser boys
Em Am D
all of his mates are doing time:
G C G D G F
married with three kids up by the ring road
Em Am D
sold their souls straight down the line.
G C G D G F
And some of them own little sports cars
Em Am D
and meet at the tennis club do's.
G C G D G F
For drinks on a Sunday --- work on Monday.
Em Am D
They've thrown away their blue suede shoes.
[Chorus]
Eb F Bb C Bb F Bb F Eb A Dm
Now he's too old to Rock'n'Roll but he's too young to die.
Eb F Bb C Bb F Bb F Eb Bb F G
yes he was too old to Rock'n'Roll but he's too young to die.
Cm Ab Fm Ddim Eb Db F
F G
[Verse 3]
C F C G C Bb
So the old Rocker gets out his bike
Am Dm G
to make a ton before he takes his leave.
C F C G C Bb
Up on the A-1 by Scotch Corner
Am Dm G
just like it used to be.
G C G D G F
And as he flies --- tears in his eyes ---
Em Am D
his wind-whipped words echo the final take
G C G D G F
and he hits the trunk road doing around a 120
Em Am D
with no room left to brake.
[Chorus]
Eb F Bb C Bb F Bb F Eb A Dm
And he was too old to Rock'n'Roll but he's too young to die.
Eb F Bb C Bb F Bb F Eb Bb F
No, you're never too old to Rock'n'Roll if you're too young to die.
(double-time rock)
Bb C F Bb C Eb Bb F
And he was too old to Rock'n'Roll but he's too young to die.
Bb C Bb F Bb F Eb Bb Cm Ab Fm
No, you're never too old to Rock'n'Roll if you're too young to die.

The old rocker wore his hair too long
Wore his trouser cuffs too tight
Unfashionable to the end
Drank his ale too light
Death's head belt buckle, yesterday's dreams
The transport caf', prophet of doom
Ringing no change in his double-sewn seams
In his post-war-babe gloom
Now he's too old to rock and roll
But he's too young to die
Yes he's too old to rock and roll
But he's too young to die
He once owned a Harley Davidson
And a Triumph Bonneville
Counted his friends in burned-out spark plugs
Prays that he always will
But he's the last of the blue blood's greaser boys
And all his mates are doing time
Married with three kids up by the ring road
Sold their souls straight down the line
And some of them own little sports cars
And meet at the tennis club do's
For drinks on a Sunday, work on Monday
They've thrown away their blue suede shoes
Now they're too old to rock and roll
And they're too young to die
Yes they're too old to rock and roll
And they're too young to die
So the old rocker gets out his bike
To make a ton before he takes his leave
Up on the A1 by Scotch Corner
Just like it used to be
And as he flies, tears in his eyes
His wind-whipped words echo the final take
And he hits the trunk road doing around a hundred and twenty
With no room left to brake
And he was too old to rock and roll
And he was too young to die
No he was too old to rock and roll
And he was too young to die
No, you're never too old to rock and roll
If you're too young to die
And no you're never too old to rock and roll
But he was too young to die
