[Verse]
B7                Am            G     C/G
That was the last New Year I'll ever see
            G                  C/G
And I wanna stay on that magic mountain
          G                   C/G
With lost souls and beautiful women
Am                       C/G  G
I drank some of Farmer's potion
Am                         C/G  G
And we were moving in slow motion

[Chorus]
C/G             G
The slower, the better
C/G             Em      Am
The slower, the better
Am                                 C/G  G
'Cause there's no one old on magic mountain
               Am                C/G  G
There's no one old, old on magic mountain

[Verse]
B7                         Am       G  C/G
And that was the very last barn I'm burning
G                      C/G
So for now everyone is dancing
G                           C/G
As if it's any time but the present
Am                           C/G    G
So for now every young thing in my path
Am                           C/G       G
I'll hold their face so long inside my hands

[Chorus]
C/G             G
The longer, the better
C/G             Em      Am
The longer, the better
Am                                 C/G  G
'Cause there's no one old on magic mountain
               Am                C/G   G
There's no one old, old on magic mountain

[Verse]
B7                    Am
The wine has all been emptied
G             C/G
And smoke has cleared
          G                C/G
As people file back to the valley
       G              C/G
On the last night of life's party
Am                                     C/G  G
These days the years thin till I can't remember
Am                                  C/G  G
Just what it feels like to be young forever

[Chorus]
C/G                  G
So the longer I stay here
C/G                Em   Am
The longer there's no future
Am                          C/G  G
So I'm growing old on magic mountain
Am                            C/G  G
I'm growing old, old on magic mountain

[Outro]
B7 Am 
G C/G
