Strophe:
Em*
Since I've known you we've always been together
And in that time the love we shared - we vowed would last forever
Ebm7*
Yet marriage is a subject you approve
D* E*
providing it has nothing whatsoever to do with you
And much as I respect that view - i have to state my case
Though I'm far from being over-the-hill
It occurs to me with each pas-sing day
Refrain:
That I'm not getting any younger - God knows it wasn't my idea
Am*
The years that used to take - An eternity to make
Cm*
Are now passing at what seems - like one a week.
Strophe:
Em*
If only we'd have met when I was your age
I wouldn't have this awful fear - I get when I leave your place
Ebm7*
You don't know how upsetting it can be
D* E*
To hear you talk of future plans - None of which seem to include me
Blue jeans and high heel boots are great course
I still wear mine quite a bit
But it's now more apparent than ever before
Despite keeping myself fair-ly fit
Refrain:
That I'm not getting any younger
Even those grey hairs are now starting to appear
And there are lines under my eyes
Am*
That never used to be this size
Cm*
Even though it could be due - to lack of sleep
Something tells me that it's more to do with passing years.
Strophe:
Em*
At times I think perhaps it would be better
If rather than go on this way posted you a letter
Ebm7*
Explaining in great detail why I feel
D* E*
The way things are between us - Suits you much more than it suits me
You have you whole life ahead of you - Well damn it I also have mine
And unless I am by nature a freak -
There's no mistaking those dead-ly signs
Refrain:
And I'm not getting any younger - Look closely now and you will see
Am*
The rebel in his teens - Who thought all adults were obscene
Cm*
Is now somewhat disenchanted with the news
That kids today have got no respect for his views
Refrain:
And I'm not getting any younger
Gone are those days when school reports were all I feared
Now for the first time in my life I'm seeing something I don't like
Bm*
And am powerless to prevent from happening
One day you'll find out for yourself just what I mean.
