          D        C#m7     Bm7                        G    A7
It's the sad eyed goodbbye yesterday's moments I'll remember
           D          C#m7        Bm7          G     A7
It's the bleak street weak kneed partings I recall
          D                 C#
It's the mistier mist, the hazier days
     Bm7                   A
The brighter sun, and the easier lays

Chorus:
        G
There's all the more reason
     D
For laughing and crying
            Dmaj7 
When youre younger
               A
And life isnt too hard at all.

t's the fantastic drowse
Of the afternoon Sundays
That bored you to rages of tears
The unending pleadings
To waste all your good times
In thoughts of your middle-aged years

It's a vertical hold
All the things that you're told
For the everyday hero
It all turns to zero

Chorus:
And there's all the more reason
For living or dying
When you're young
And your troubles are all very small

E                     G#
Out here on the streets we'd gather and meet
      A                         C          D
And scuff up the sidewalks with endlessly restless feet
E               G#
Half of the time we'd broaden our
       A
minds more in the pool halls
         C            D
Than we did in the school halls.
E                  G#
With the downtown chewing gum bums
 A                           F#             D  A
Watching the nightlife, the lights and the fun.

Never wanted to be the boy next door
Always thought I'd be something more
But it ain’t easy for a smalltown boy
It ain’t easy at all

Thinkin' it right, doin' it wrong
It's easier from an armchair
Waves of alternatives wash at my sleepiness
Have my eggs poached
For breakfast I guess
I think I'll be Clint Eastwood
Oh no, Jimi Hendrix, he was good
Let's try William the Conqueror
Now who else do I like?
Brian May
