capo 3
Verse1
It [C] keeps me awake
The look on your face
The [G] moment you heard the news
You're [Dm] screaming inside
And frozen in time
You [F] did all that you could do
The [C] game was rigged, the ref got tricked
The [G] wrong ones think they’re right
You were [Dm] outnumbered — this [F] time
Chorus
But only the [C] young
Only the [G] young
Only the [Dm] young
Only the [F] young can [C] run [G]
Can [Dm] run, so [F] run
And run, and [C] run
Verse2
So [C] every day now
You brace for the sound
You've [G] only heard on TV
You [Dm] go to class, scared
Wondering where the [F] best hiding spot would be
And the [C] big bad man and his big bad clan
Their [G] hands are stained with red
O, how [Dm] quickly, they [F] forget
Pre-chorus
They aren't gonna [F] help us
Too busy helping [Am] themselves
They aren't gonna [F] change this
We gotta do it [Am] ourselves
They think that it's [F] over
But it's just [Dm] begun
Chorus
Only one thing can [F] save us
Only the [C] young (Only the young)
Only the [G] young (Only the young)
Only the [Dm] young (Only the young)
Only the [F] young
Post-chorus
Only the [C] young (Only the young)
Only the [G] young (Only the young)
Only the [Dm] young (Only the young)
Only the [F] young
Only the [C] young (Only the young)
(Don’t say you're too tired to fight
It's just a matter of time
Up there's the finish line)
Only the [G] young (Only the young)
Only the [Dm] young (Only the young)
Only the [F] young
Can [C] run
[C] Don’t say you're too tired to fight
[G] It's just a matter of time (Can run)
[Dm] Up there's the finish line
[F] So run, and run, and run
[C] Don’t say you're too tired to fight
[G] It's just a matter of time (So run)
[Dm] Up there's the finish line
[F] And run, and run, and run
[C] Only the young
[G] Only the young
[Dm] Only the [F] young
