Nothing to lose is a path you can 
choose and it feels jEmust right at the time. 
Then one day yCou awake with a fear you can't shake, 
you're an actoDr forgetting your lines. 
You were a star wGhen you started, 
so bright eyed and ready but now Em  
you just can't seem to shine. 
CNothing to lose is a path that you choose 
and it feDels just right at the time. 
But can you sGtill remember your very first kiss 
or the futEmure you hoped for when we were still kids? 
Stay youCng, stay young. D

Nothing to lose is a path you can

choose and it feels just right at the time.

Then one day you awake with a fear you can't shake,

you're an actor forgetting your lines.

You were a star when you started,

so bright eyed and ready but now

you just can't seem to shine.

Nothing to lose is a path that you choose

and it feels just right at the time.

But can you still remember your very first kiss

or the future you hoped for when we were still kids?

C D

Stay young, stay young.

G Em

There are constants like gravity, heartbreak and shame,

you can never out-run them,

they're part of your name like lessons you learn from a past you can't change,

D G

stay young, stay young for a lifetime of paying dues and ruthless reviews,

yeah it's hard not to end up a cynic

when everyone's too scared to walk in your shoes

but can work up the nerve to be critics.

Oh, can you still remember your very first kiss

or the future you hoped for when we were still kids?

C D Am7

Stay young, stay young - no, don't lose your heart.

Em C G D

Don't lose your soul. Don't give up control.

G Em

It's the business end of a loaded gun, facing tomorrows of black,

useless lungs with nothing but lies left on tips of our tongues,

D G

stay young, stay young! Oh can you still remember your very first kiss

or the future you hoped for when we were still kids

C D

trying to keep up our innocence in this fucked up world?

G Em C D

Stay young, stay young, stay young, stay young, stay young!

G Em

Nothing to lose is a path that you choose and it feels just right at the time

C D

then one day you awake with a fear you can shake you're an actor forgetting you lines
