YOUNG AT HEART

Words & music by Carolyn Leight & Johnny Richards

Bbdim

Fairy tales can come true, it can happen to you

Am7

If you’re young at heart;

Am7

For it’s hard, you will find to be narrow of mind,

If you’re young at heart.

Bm7b5

Bm7b5 E7

You can go to extremes with impossible schemes,

You can laugh when your dreams fall apart at the seams.

Am7

And life gets more exciting with each passing day,

Bbdim/D7

And love is either in your heart, or on its way.

Bbdim

Don’t you know that it’s worth ev’ry treasure on earth

Am7

To be young at heart;

Am7

For as rich as you are, it’s much better by far

To be young at heart.

Bm7b5

And if you should survive to a hundred and five,

Cm6

Look at all you’ll derive out of being alive.

Gma7

Em7 Am7

And here is the best part, you’ll have a head start,

Edim

Am7/ Edim/ G

If you are among the very young at

heart.

Edim

Am7

Gmaj7 G

End: If you are among the very young – at – heart

we felt we had to make the effort to play this. MC.)
