And then slide down the neck and start playing the verses.
I _think_ that you can pretty much just get away with chords
here. Anyway, that's all I know how to do at this point.
If anyone figures out any little lead parts to spruce this
up, let me know.
E A
Growing up today, there's many mountains you must climb
C D
You're not the only one, 'Cause everybody's on that line
E A
Hey mister know it all, what do you recommend?
C D
You think you know the answers but the questions never end
E5 F#5 G5 A5
Young hearts better hold on
C5 D5
Beyond the innocence your youth is gone
E5 F#5
So look in your mirror
G5 A5
You got nothing to lose
C5 D5
Don't waste your time away thinkin' 'bout yesterday's blues

Born outta passion to a world gone cold
C D
You wear it on your shoulders, it's a heavy, heavy load I know
E A
Love and its emotions come knocking at your door
C D
Young hearts will be broken and time's the only cure
E5 F#5 G5 A5
Young hearts better hold on
C5 D5

(Guitar tacit)
Temptation makes us fall from grace
But the angels were sinners and the sinners saints
Forgive yourself cause we're all the same
Everybody rides on the karma train
E5 F#5 G5 A5
Young hearts better hold on
C5 D5
Beyond your innocence your youth is gone
E5 F#5 G5 A5
Look in you mirror, it'll tell you the truth
C5
Don't waste your time away
D5
Don't waste your life away, no, no
E5 F#5
Live today
G5 A5
There's no time to lose
C5
Cause when tomorrow comes
D5
It's all just yesterday's news

That's all I know of this one. I hope it's more or less
accurate. Sorry about the lack of the solo. I may get
around to it, I don't know.
BTW, I have also started Mr. Bluesman from this album.
I know the basic chords, etc. Basically enough to go on
_except_ I don't know the solo. E-mail me if you'd like
to see what I've got so far.
Correction, etc. (especially the addition of the solo) are
strongly encouraged.
Enjoy
