Keep Your Heart Young - Brandi Carlile Tuned Down a Half Step This is done off the version from youtube. When the song comes out on record I will check it to make sure its still good. G C G Grandpa gave a wee pennie and I put it in my pocket G D I had big plans in my back yard to build me a space rocket G C G I talked to my brother on a fake CB that I made from a tic-tac box G D G I packed my snowballs nice and tight but in the middle I put rocks C G Don’t trade in your tic-tac box for a ball on the end of a chain G D And don’t go spending Grandpa’s pennies buying into the game C G You gotta keep your heart young D B/G Don’t go growin old before your time has come C G You can’t take back what you have done D G You’ve gotta keep your heart young Dad took the wheels off of my bike and he pushed me down a hill But speed got the best of me and I took my first spill That was back when alcohol was only used on cuts It stung like hell so I turned my leg and momma said it’d give me guts Don’t trade in your tic-tac box for a ball on the end of a chain And don’t go spending Grandpa’s pennies buying into the game You gotta keep your heart young Don’t go growin old before your time has come You can’t take back what you have done You’ve gotta keep your heart young So take a picture of the one you love and put it in a locket Go dig up your time capsule and the blue prints for your rocket Keep in touch on a fake CB, that same old tic-tac box Pack your snowballs a little less tight but in the middle still put rocks And keep your heart young Don’t go growin old before your time has come You can’t take back what you have done You’ve gotta keep your heart young You gotta keep your heart young Sometimes you don’t die quick Just like you wished you’d done The love is a loaded gun You’ve gotta keep your heart young You can’t take back what you have done You’ve gotta keep your heart young
