Intro: Am7 D7
Strophe:
B7
Em*
Since I've known you we've always been together
      B                                  G7
And in that time the love we shared -  we vowed would last forever
C
Ebm7*
Yet marriage is a subject you approve
D*                               E*
providing it has nothing whatsoever to do with you
           Am                             Bm
And much as I respect that view - i have to state my case
            C               Bm
Though I'm far from being over-the-hill
      F                    C7 C7   D7
It occurs to me with each pas-sing day
Refrain:
      Am         D       Bm   Em      Am           Cm         G   G7
That I'm not getting any younger - God knows it wasn't my idea
  C7  B7  Em7
Am*
The years that used to take  - An eternity to make
  G  F  C   G
Cm*
Are now passing at what seems   -    like one a week.
Strophe:
B7
Em*
If only we'd have met when I was your age
      B                              G7
I wouldn't have this awful fear  - I get when I leave your place
C
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
               Am
Blue jeans and high heel boots are great course
  Bm
I still wear mine quite a bit
          C                      Bm
But it's now more apparent than ever before
     F                  C7 C7  D7
Despite keeping myself fair-ly  fit
Refrain:
      Am         D       Bm   Em
That I'm not getting any younger
           Am                  Cm            G   G7
Even those grey hairs are now starting to appear
               C7           B7
And there are lines under my eyes
Em7
Am*
That never used to be this size
  G   B   Em
Cm*
Even though it could be due         -  to lack of sleep
            Am                D                       Bb  C  C  C  G
Something tells me that it's more to do with passing years.
F  C  C  G
Strophe:
B7
Em*
At times I think perhaps it would be better
      B                                  G7
If rather than go on this way posted you a letter
C
Ebm7*
Explaining in great detail why I feel
D*                                              E*
The way things are between us - Suits you much more than it suits me
            Am                              Bm
You have you whole life ahead of you - Well damn it I also have mine
          C                      Bm
And unless I am by nature a freak  -
        F                  C7   C7  D7
There's no mistaking those dead-ly signs
Refrain:
      Am         D       Bm   Em      Am           Cm         G   G7
And I'm not getting any younger  - Look closely now and you will see
  C7  B7  Em7
Am*
The rebel in his teens  - Who thought all adults were obscene
  G   B   Em
Cm*
Is now somewhat disenchanted with the news
            Am                D               C  D   E  F#
That kids today have got no respect for his views
Refrain:
      G#m         C#      Bbm  Ebm
And I'm not getting any younger
                  G#m              Bm                F#     F#7
Gone are those days when school reports were all I feared
      B7      Bb7                             Ebm7           G#m
Now for the first time in my life I'm seeing something I don't like
  F#  Bb  Ebm
Bm*
And am powerless to prevent from happening
          G#m                C#                    F   C   C   G
One day you'll find out for yourself just what I mean.
