If The Good Die Young Acordes

	  Intro: E    (G A B - Acoustic and Bass) 
 
E 
It was Sunday morning, I was seven years old 
 
In the backyard playing in a big mudhole 
     E 
I was all decked out, ready for church 
                                       (B Bm A - Acoustic) 
Had my brand new suit all covered in dirt 
E 
Mama hit the ceiling she was fit to be tied 
(E E - Acoustic)                       (A A E - Acoustic) 
Talkin 'bout how shes gonna tan my hide 
E                            E 
But Daddy was laughing when I changed my clothes 
         B                        E 
'Saying "Mama leave the boy alone" 
 
A 
Cause if the good die young 
E 
If the good die young 
B 
Ma, our little boy's gonna have alot of fun 
E 
Cause he's gonna live forever if the good die young
 
 
 
Ten years later had a hot rod ford 
Constable clocked me at a hundred and four 
Judge said "boy you're gonna hurt yourself 
you'd a long been dead if you were anybody else" 
 
(Chorus) 
Cause if the good die young 
If the good die young 
Oh there ain't a sentence gonna hold you son 
Cause he's gonna live forever if the good die young 
 
Instrumental:  Play like Chorus 
 
E 
Well I got a good heart, I wouldn't hurt a soul 
E 
But I'm gonna keep rocking till they call that roll 
E 
Ol' St. Peter's gonna have to wait                         
                            (E     G  A  - Acoustic and Bass) 
I'm gonna go to heaven but I might be late 
 
(Chorus) 
Cause if the good die young 
If the good die young 
Pedal to the metal, let your motor run 
Cause he's gonna live forever if the good die young 
 
(Chorus) 
And if the good die young 
if the good die young 
They got the jams, we'll have some fun 
Cause I'm gonna live forever if the good die young
