G Cadd9
Well they don't slide a twenty in your birthday card no more
D G
And there's a 50/50 shot you'll have a cake
G Cadd9
We're throwing down the night, some of us stay out late
D G
But some of us have babies on the way
[Chorus]
G
Too old to die young
Cadd9
Too young to slow down
D
Still got a lot to learn
Cadd9 G
Some would say I've been around
G
Probably missed my chance by now
Cadd9
To be an astronaut
D Cadd9
But I've still got a lot of fire left to burn
D G
At thirty years on earth
[Interlude]
Cadd9 D G
[Verse 2]
G
I'm catching up to my dad
Cadd9
He's gonna turn sixty this May
D G
And for once he's twice as old as I am now
G Cadd9
I bought a car without a cosign when my premium went down
D G
But I still like to blow those speakers out
[Chorus]
G
Now that I'm too old to die young
Cadd9
But too young to slow down
D
Still got a lot to learn
Cadd9 G
Some would say I've been around
G
Probably missed my chance by now
Cadd9
To be an astronaut
D Cadd9
And I've still got a lot of fire left to burn
D Em
At thirty years on earth
[Interlude]
G Cadd9 G D
[Verse 3]
G
I've beat up this guitar
Cadd9
It still don't look like Willie Nelsons
D G
But with any luck I'll get it there some day
G Cadd9
I got a little piece of land then I bought a girl a diamond
D G
You know, the more I think about it I'm okay
[Chorus]
G
Getting too old to die young
Cadd9
Too young to slow down
D Cadd9 G
There's some things you just can't talk me into now
G
So what if I missed my chance
Cadd9
To be an astronaut?
D G
And I've still got a lot of fire left to burn
D G
At thirty years on earth
Cadd9 D
Oh yeah, thirty years on earth
G G
Now, now, now, yeah
D G
Thirty years on earth
