Only The Good Die Young

I was driving just last week
                          Dm
Out west where it's wide open
                           G
When out in a hot plowed field

A dust devil clicked his heels
                    C
And headed for the road

When we intersected
                          Dm
This little whirlwind and me
                  G
It sure shook me good

And as it blew cross my hood
                   C
It reminded me of life

[Chorus]
C                 F
If only the good die young
                  C      Am
I might live forever, I guess
                  G
Caught up on the wind

Around and round again
                      C
Just trying to do my best

I've been trying to go to church,

                         Dm
But I keep getting intercepted
                    G
By the ball game on TV

Or a Zebco 303
                       C
Didn't Peter fish for men?

[Chorus]
C                     F
And if only the good die young
                 C        Am
I might live forever, I guess
              G
Casting all about

Trying to figure it all out
                      C
Just trying to do my best

There are thing that I have done
                              Dm
And I think I've learned my lessons
                          G
But I'd sure hate to get asked

To stand up in class
                 C
And explain to everyone

[Chorus]
C                     F
Why if only the good die young
                 C
I have lived forever
                           G
I'll be stuck here after school

Wondering what to do
                       C
Wondering where is everyone?

[Chorus]
C                           F
Ohhh, and if only the good die young
                        C
Well, we might live forever
                      G
It'll just be me and you

Stuck here in this pew
                               C
Wondering, Lord, what have we done?

[Chorus]
C                 F
If only the good die young
                 C       Am
I might live forever, I guess
                  G
Caught up on the wind

Round and round again
                      C G Am G C
Just trying to do my best
