[C][Am][G][C]

[Verse 1]
Hard [Am]bodies,
[F]soft [G]emotions[C]
So [Am]fast so [G]smart[C]
[F]The world's at your [Am]feet
But what [G]about your [Dm]heart
Fame and [F]power can't
hold [G]you tight
[C]In the late hours [G]of the night

[Verse 2]
How [C]do you stop (How do
[Am]you stop)
Before it's [G]too late
You [Dm]choose and you lose
[F]if you hes[G]itate
How do [C]you stop (How do
[Am]you stop)
Before it's [G]too late
[Dm]You think love will wait
[F]So you don't hold [G]on and then
[C]it's gone[Am]
Then it's [C]gone
[Am][G]

[Verse 3]
[C]
You've had some suc[Am]cess
[F]A new gro[G]up of [C]friends
You called it the "good [Am]life"
[G]Thought it would never never end[F]
One minute you're too young
[G]Then you're in your prime
[F]Then you're lookin' back
Through the hand[G]s of time

[Verse 4]
How do [C]you (How do [Am]you stop)
Before it's [G]too [Dm]late
You choose and you lose
[F]if you[G] hesitate
How [C]do you stop
[Am](How do you stop)
Before it's [G]too late
You think love will [C]wait
You don't [Am]hold [G]on and then it's gone
