Verse 1:
    Eb
It keeps me awake

The look on your face
     Bb
The moment you heard the news
          Fm
You're screaming inside

And frozen in time
     Ab
You did all that you could do
     Eb
The game was rigged, the ref got tricked
     Bb
The wrong ones think they’re right
             Fm                   Ab
You were outnumbered — this time

Chorus:
              Eb
But only the young
           Bb
Only the young
           Fm
Only the young
           Ab           Eb    Bb
Only the young can run
    Fm      Ab
Can run, so run
             Eb
And run, and run

Verse 2:
     Eb
So every day now

You brace for the sound
        Bb
You've only heard on TV
     Fm
You go to class, scared
                     Ab
Wondering where the best hiding spot would be
         Eb
And the big bad man and his big bad clan
         Bb
Their hands are stained with red
          Fm                 Ab
Oh, how quickly, they forget

Pre-chorus:
Cm                  Ab
 They aren't gonna help us
                          Cm
Too busy helping themselves
                    Ab
They aren't gonna change this
                      Cm
We gotta do it ourselves
                       Ab
They think that it's over
                 Fm
But it's just begun

Chorus:
                    Ab
Only one thing can save us
           Eb
Only the young (Only the young)
           Bb
Only the young (Only the young)
           Fm
Only the young (Only the young)
           Ab
Only the young

Post-chorus:
           Eb
Only the young (Only the young)
           Bb

Only the young (Only the young)
           Ab
Only the young
           Eb
Only the young (Only the young)
            (Don’t say you're too tired to fight)
           Bb
Only the young (Only the young)
            (It's just a matter of time)
           Fm
Only the young (Only the young)
            (Up there's the finish line)
           Ab
Only the young
       Eb
Can run

Eb
Don’t say you're too tired to fight

It's just a matter of time (Can run)

Up there's the finish line

So run, and run, and run

And run, and run, and run
