Only The Good Die Young

 F                   C/G          
Come out Virginia,  don't let me 
   Am
me wait
    F                      G      
You Catholic girls start  much too 
C
late
    F                   C/G       
But sooner or later it comes down 
   Am
to fate
               F                   
            I might as well be the 
        G
one

      F                        C/G
They showed you a statue and  told
         Am
 you to pray
     F                         G  
They built you a temple and  
       C
locked you away
    F                         C/G 
But they never told you the  price
           Am
 that you pay
     F                          G
For things that you might have done


[Chorus]

       G         G                
           For   only the good die
   C         F             G
   young     that's what I said
       C            C             
          Only the good die young 
F            G
  only the  good die young


[Verse]

  C                 F             
     You might have heard I run 
      C/G          Am
with a dangerous crowd
   F                   G       
We ain't too pretty we ain't too 
       C
proud
   F                   G           
We might be laughing a bit too loud
Am

   F                          G
But that never hurt no one

 G       F                    C/G
      So come on Virginia  show 
     Am
me a sign
  F                        G      
  Send up a signal I'll  throw you
     C
 the line
    F                              
The stained-glass curtain you're   
C/G       Am
hiding behind
 F                        G
  Never lets in the sun


[Chorus]

       G         G                 
         Darlin  only the good die 
C        F        G
 young        woh - oh
       C           C            F
          Only the good die young
          G
   only the  good die young


[Bridge 1]

  C             G                 
      You got a nice white dress 
  F                    C
and a party on your confirmation
  C          D                  D
   You got a brand new soul      
        F
  And a cross of gold
  F            G                  
       But Virginia they didn't 
       F                 C
give you quite enough information
  C              D            D  
     You didn't count on me When 
                          F
you were counting on your rosary

   C    Dm   C     G
   Oh   oh   oh    And_they


[Verse]

F                         C/G    
Say there's a heaven for those 
        Am
who will wait
F                         G      
Some say it's better but  I say 
       C
it ain't
           F                     
I'd rather laugh with the sinners 
      G              Am
than  cry  with the saints
    F                     G
The sinners are much more fun


[Chorus]

       G       G                C
       You know  only the good 
       F              G
die  young      that's what I say
       C           C            F
          Only the good die young
          G             C
   only the  good die young

[Bridge 2]

  F              G
    You say your  mother told you 
all that I could
   F                     C
   Give you was a reputa-tion
  C         D           D        
   She never cared for me  But 
               F
did she ever say a prayer for me?
   C   Dm  C    G
   Oh   oh   oh    And_they
