[Intro 1]
[F][F][Am][F][G][C]
[F][F][Am][F][G]

[Verse 1]
[F]Come out, Virginia, [G]don't let me [Am]wait
You [F]Catholic girls start [G]much too [C]late
Aw, but [F]sooner or later it [G]comes down [Am]to fate
I [F]might as well will be the [G]one
Well, they [F]showed you a statue,
[G]told you to [Am]pray
They [F]built you a temple and [G]locked you a[C]way
Aw, but [F]they never told you
the [G]price that you [Am]pay
For [F]things that you might have [G]done

[Chorus 1]
Well, only the good die [C]young[F]
That's what I [G]said[C]
Only the good [C]die [F]young
Only the good [G]die [C]young

[Verse 2]
You mighta [F]heard I run
with a [G]dangerous [Am]crowd
We [F]ain't too pretty, we [G]ain't too [C]proud
We [F]might be laughing a [G]bit too [Am]loud
Aw, but [F]that never hurt no [G]one
So come [F]on, Virginia, [G]show me a [Am]sign
[F]Send up a signal, I'll [G]throw you the [C]line
The [F]stained-glass curtain
you're [G]hiding be[Am]hind
[F]Never let's in the [G]sun

[Chorus 2]
Darlin', only the good die [C]young[F]
[G]Whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa[C]
I tell ya only the good [C]die [F]young
Only the good [G]die [C]young

[Bridge 1]
You got a [G]nice white dress
and a [F]party on your confir[C]ma tion
You got a [D]brand new soul
Mmm, and a [F]cross of gold
But, Vir[G]ginia, they didn't give you
[F]quite enough infor[C]ma tion
You didn't [D]count on me
When you were counting on your [F]rosary
[G]Oh-whoa-whoa

[Verse 3]
And they [F]say there's a heaven
for [G]those who will [Am]wait
[F]Some say it's better, but [G]I say it a[C]in't
I'd rather [F]laugh with the sinners
than [G]cry with the [Am]saints
The [F]sinners are much more [G]fun

[Chorus 3]
You know that only the good die [C]young[F]
Oh, ba[G]by[C]
I tell ya only the good [C]die [F]young
Only the good [G]die [C]young

[Solo 1]
[G][F][C][C]
[D][D][F][F]

[Bridge 2]
Said your [G]mother told you
all that I could [F]give you was a repu[C]ta tion
Aw, she never [D]cared for me
But did she ever say a [F]prayer for me?
[G]Oh-whoa-whoa

[Verse 4]
Come [F]out, come out, come out,
Vir[G]ginia, [Am]don't let me wait
[F]You Catholic gir[G]ls start muc[C]h too lat[F]e
Sooner or later it [G]comes down [Am]to fate
I [F]might as well will be the [G]one

[Chorus 4]
You know that only the good die [C]young[F]
Tell you, [G]ba [C]by
You know that only the good [C]die [F]young
Only the good [G]die [C]young
Only the [C]good[F]
Only the good [G]die [C]young

[Outro 1]
Ooh- [C]ohh ooh- [F]hoo
Ooh- hoo- [G]hoo- ooh- [C]hoo
[Repeat and fade]
