Lyrics and Music by Billy Joel

Intro: C+ | E75- E5-
       Bdim7 | F

       Dm75- | G7 G7
       C | C

Am             C
Slow down, you crazy child,
       G                 Bb
You’re so ambitious for a juvenile.
            F
But then if you’re so smart,
        C
Tell me why
                  D           E
Are you still so afraid? Mm.

Am
Where’s the fire,
           C
What’s the hurry about?
          G
You better cool it off
           Bb
Before you burn it out.
        F
You got so much to do and only
C                   Bm7  D   E
So many hours in a day. Hey.

Chorus:
   F
     But you know that
              G           
     When the truth is told,
                  C             G  
     That you can get what you want,
                Am        Am7  
     Or you can just get old.
                 F
     You’re gonna kick off before you
     Bm7       E7    Am7        D7
     Even get halfway through. Ooh.
                   G#7      
     When will you realize
   G7                 C
     Vienna waits for you?

Instrumental: C | C C C Cmaj

Am                C
Slow down, you’re doing fine,
             G
You can’t be everything you want
        Bb
To be before your time.
              F
Although it’s so romantic
      C              D            E
On the borderline tonight, tonight.

Am                    C
Too bad, but it’s the life you lead,
           G
You’re so ahead of yourself
            Bb
That you forgot what you need.
               F
Though you can see when you’re wrong,
             C
You know you can’t always see
             Bm7           D   E
When you’re right, you’re right.

Chorus:
   F
     You got your passion,
         G            
     You got your pride,
         C
     But don’t you know
          G          Am        Am7  
     That only fools are satisfied?
   F                      Bm7
     Dream on, but don’t imagine
              E7    Am7      D7
     They’ll all come true. Ooh.
                   G#7      
     When will you realize
   G7          C
     Vienna waits for you?

     Slow down, you crazy child
                  C             G  
     And take the phone off the hook
              Am          Am7  
     And disappear for a while.
   F                         Bm7
     It’s alright, you can afford
               E7   Am7     D7
     To lose a day or two. Ooh.

     That you can get what you want,
                Am
     Or you can just
          Am7  
     Get old you’re gonna
   F                     Bm7
     Kick off before you even

     Get halfway through. Ooh.
