Capo 3rd fret
Intro: }x4
Verse:
Billy left his home with a dollar
in his pocket and a head full of dreams.
He said somehow, some way, its gotta get
better than this.
Patti packed her bags, left a note for her momma,
she was just seventeen,
There were tears in her eyes
when she kissed her little sister goodbye.
They held each other tight as they drove
on through the night they were so exited.
We got just one shot of life, lets take it while
were still not afraid.
Because life is so brief and time is a thief
when youre undecided.
And like a fistful of sand,
it can slip right through your hands.
Chorus:
Young hearts be free tonight. time is on your side,
Dont let them put you down, dont let em push you around,
Dont let em ever change your point of view.
Verse:
Paradise was closed so they headed for the coast
in a blissful manner.
They took a tworoom apartment that was jumping
every night of the week.
Happiness was found in each others arms
as expected, yeah
Billy pierced his ears, drove a pickup
like a lunatic, ooh!
Chorus:
Young hearts be free tonight. time is on your side,
Dont let them put you down, dont let em push you around,
Dont let em ever change your point of view.
Instrumental: }x3
Young hearts be free tonight.time is on your side.
Verse:
Billy wrote a letter back home to pattis parents t
ryin to explain.
He said were both real sorry that it had to turn out this way.
But there aint no point in talking
when theres nobody listning
so we just ran away
Patti gave birth to a ten pound
baby boy, yeah!
Chorus:
Young hearts be free tonight. time is on your side,
Dont let them put you down, dont let em push you around,
Dont let em ever change your point of view.
Young hearts be free tonight, time is on your side.
Young hearts be free tonight, time is on your side.
Young hearts be free tonight, time in on your side.
Young hearts gotta run free, be free, live free
Time is on, time is on your side
Time, time, time, time is on your side
Is on your side, is on your side, is on your side
Young heart be free tonight
Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, yeah
