[Intro]
A Em A G A  Em  x2
strummed guitar)
 
[Verse 1]
A                        Em
Sometimes I feel so alive
A                             Em
Sometimes I see so clear
A                    Em
Just like the way we always were
A                       Em
So young and free from fear
 
[Bridge]
F#m         A                     Em
I lose my fear of war and dying
F#m         A                       Em
And all the clouds just disappear
F#m         A                  Em
Only my mirror sees me crying
F#m         A                  Em  A  G
Each time I lose another year
 
[Chorus]
D                                   A  G
Wouldn't be a drag to be like you
D                              Em
Settling down and having kids
        F
And telling them what to do
 
Well I'm gonna stay
A               Em          x4
Nineteen forever
 
[Verse 2]
A                        Em
We can do magic in these times
A                        Em
Be what we want to be
A                        Em
We'll all be rock 'n' roll stars
A               Em
Immortal on TV
 
F#m         A                         Em
And if you see me looking tired
F#m         A                         Em
I've just been sleeping thought the day
F#m         A                         Em
But I got something to keep me wired
F#m         A                  Em   A  G
we can dance the night away
 
D                                       A  G
Wouldn't it be a drag to be like them
D                              Em
They're gonna sell out everything
        F
But I won't get fooled again
 
Cause I'm gonna be
A               Em          x4
Nineteen forever
 
C                      G
You better believe it
C                       G        A  Em
You know my dream's still alive
C                             G
You can love it or leave it
C                       G  A  Em
But I'm never gonna be 35
 
F#m      A            Em
Oooh-   hoooo-  hoo
F#m      A            Em
Oooh-   hoooo-  hoo
F#m      A            Em
Oooh-   hoooo-  hoo
F#m      A            Em
Oooh-   hoooo-  hoo    I’m gonna be
 
A               Em

A               Em
Nineteen forever  (yes I am)
A               Em
Nineteen forever  (yes I am)
A               Em
Nineteen forever  (yes I am
A               Em
Nineteen forever
A               Em
Nineteen forever
A               Em
Nineteen forever
A               Em
Nineteen forever
Em
I don’t care what you say……
