Only The Good Die Young Chords & Lyrics - Misc Your Songs - Ray Porter

[Bbm7]I've seen a young child [Ebm7]die, [F#m7]while the bad are left [Bbm7]alive
I've seen the child they took [Ebm7]away, [F#m7]while the parents have t [Bbm7]

[Eb]And only the good die [Fm]young, the [Eb]rest are left to [Fm]carry on
and [Eb]only the good ones [Fm]cry, the [Eb]rest are left to [Fm]reason why

[Bbm7]I've seen a child lose it's [Ebm7]breath, [F#m7]being snatched away by [Bbm7]death
I've seen the prime of their [Ebm7]life, [F#m7]being cut short like a [Bbm7]knife

[Eb]And only the good die [Fm]young, the [Eb]rest are left to [Fm]carry on
and [Eb]only the good ones [Fm]cry, the [Eb]rest are left to [Fm]reason why

[Bbm7]You may try to justi[Ebm7]fy, [F#m7]why the good ones have to [Bbm7]die
but God has need to keep them [Ebm7]safe, [F#m7]from the evil they may [Bbm7]face

[Eb]And only the good die [Fm]young, the [Eb]rest are left to [Fm]carry on
and [Eb]only the good ones [Fm]cry, the [Eb]rest are left to [Fm]reason why

[Bbm7]If they had lived we'll never [Ebm7]know, in [F#m7]which direction they would [Bbm7]go
but God who knows them best sets the [Ebm7]test, [F#m7]and in his trust we have to [Bbm7]rest

[Eb]And only the good die [Fm]young, the [Eb]rest are left to [Fm]carry on
and [Eb]only the good ones [Fm]cry, the [Eb]rest are left to [Fm]reason why
