Brandi Carlile - Keep Your Heart Young: chords

F#
My Grandpa gave a wheat penny and
   B             F#
I kept it in my pocket
F#
I had big plans in my back yard
    C#
to build me a space rocket
F#
I talked to my brother on a fake CB
        B                   F#
that I made from a tic-tac box
F#
I packed my snowballs nice and
                  C#           F#
tight but in the middle I put rocks

B
Don't trade in your tic-tac box
                            F#
for a ball on the end of a chain
And don't go spending Grandpa's
                         C#
pennies buying into the game

Chorus:
           B               F#
You gotta keep your heart young
C#                      D#m
Don't go growing old before your time has come
                B                  F#
You can't take back what you have done
              C#              F#
You've gotta keep your heart young

Dad took the wheels off of my bike
and he pushed me down a hill
But speed got the best of me and
I took my first spill
That was back when alcohol was only used on cuts
Stung like hell, so I jerked my leg
and Mama said it would give me guts

Chorus:
Don't trade in your tic-tac box for
a ball on the end of the chain
And don't go spending Grandpa's
pennies buying into the game
You gotta keep your heart young
Don't go growing old before your time has come
You can't take back what you have done
You gotta keep your heart young

So take a picture of the one you love
and put it in a locket
Go dig up your time capsule and
the blueprints for your rocket
Keep in touch on a fake CB and
that same old tic-tac box
Pack your snowballs a little less
tight, but in the middle, still put rocks

And keep your heart young
Don't go growing old before your time has come
You can't take back what you have done
You gotta keep your heart young
You gotta keep your heart young
Sometimes you don't die quick just
like you wished you'd done
Though love is a loaded gun
You've gotta keep your heart young
You can't take back what you have done
You gotta keep your heart young
