[Verse 1]

B7 A G C/G

That was the last New Year I'll ever see

G C/G

And I wanna stay on that magic mountain

G C/G

With lost souls and beautiful women

Am C/G G

I drank some of Farmer's potion

Am C/G G

And we were moving in slow motion

[Chorus]

C/G G

The slower, the better

C/G Em Am

The slower, the better

Am C/G G

'Cause there's no one old on magic mountain

Am C/G G

There's no one old, old on magic mountain

[Verse 2]

B7 A G C/G

And that was the very last barn I'm burning

G C/G

So for now everyone is dancing

G C/G

As if it's any time but the present

Am C/G G

So for now every young thing in my path

Am C/G G

I'll hold their face so long inside my hands

[Chorus]

C/G G

The longer, the better

C/G Em Am

The longer, the better

Am C/G G

'Cause there's no one old on magic mountain

Am C/G G

There's no one old, old on magic mountain

[Verse 3]

B7 A

The wine has all been emptied

G C/G

And smoke has cleared

G C/G

As people file back to the valley

G C/G

On the last night of life's party

Am C/G G

These days the years thin till I can't remember

Am C/G G

Just what it feels like to be young forever

[Chorus]

C/G G

So the longer I stay here

C/G Em Am

The longer there's no future

Am C/G G

So I'm growing old on magic mountain

Am C/G G

I'm growing old, old on magic mountain

[Outro]

B7 A

G C/G
