L[D]ine one, [G]Is the time, [D] That you, You fi[E]rst stayed o[G]ver at mi[D]ne
And we dr[E]ank our first bo[G]ttle of w[D]ine, [A] A[G]nd we cr[D]ied
T[D]wo, [G] We're away, [D] And we both, We b[E]oth had no[G]where to s[D]tay
Well the b[E]us shelters al[G]ways o[D]kay, [A] W[G]hen you're yo[D]ung[D]
Now you're ol[D]der and I look at your f[G]ace, Every wr[D]inkle is so easy to p[G]lace
And I o[D]nly write them down just in c[Bm]ase, That you d[A]ie[A]
Just take a lo[A]ok at these cr[D]ows feet Just [Bm]look, Si[G]tting on the prettiest e[A]yes
Si[D]xty twentyfifth of Dec[Bm]embers, Fif[G]tynine Fourth of Ju[A]ly's
N[G]ot through the age or the fai[A]lure children, N[D]ot through the hate or de[Bm]spise
T[D]ake a good look at these c[Bm]rows feet, Si[A]tting on the prettiest e[D]yes *RIFF*
L[D]ine three, [G]I forget, [D] But I think, I th[E]ink it was our f[G]irst ever b[D]et
And the ho[E]rse we backed was sh[G]ort of a l[D]eg, [A] N[G]evermi[D]nd
Fo[D]ur, I[G]n a park, [D] And the things, The th[E]ings that people [G]do in the d[D]ark
I could h[E]ear the faintest b[G]eat of your h[D]eart, [A] T[G]hen we d[D]id[D]
Now you're ol[D]der and I look at your f[G]ace, Every wr[D]inkle is so easy to p[G]lace
And I on[D]ly write them down just in c[Bm]ase, You should d[A]ie[A]
Just take a l[A]ook at these c[D]rows feet Just l[Bm]ook, Si[G]tting on the prettiest e[A]yes
S[D]ixty twentyfifth of De[Bm]cembers, Fif[G]tynine Fourth of Ju[A]ly's
You c[G]an't have too many g[A]ood times children, You c[D]an't have too many l[Bm]ines
T[D]ake a good look at these c[Bm]rows feet, Si[A]tting on the prettiest e[D]yes *RIFF*
Well my e[D]yes look like a m[G]ap, Of the t[D]own
And my te[D]eth are either ye[G]llow, Or they're br[D]own
But you'll ne[G]ver hear the cr[A]ack of a fr[D]own when you are h[Bm]ere
You'll ne[G]ver hear the cr[A]ack, Of a fr[D]own, [G] Of a f[D]rown, [G] Of a fr[D]own
