[C]When I get older, losing my hair, many years from now[G] [G]Will you still be sending me a valentine, birthday greeting, bottle of [C]wine? [C]If I'd been out 'till quarter to three, [C7]would you lock the door[F]? Will you still [Ab7]need me, [C]will you still feed[A7] me, [D7]When I'm [G7]sixty [C]four? [Am] [G] [Am] You'll be older, [E]too [Am]and if you [Dm]say the word, [F]I could [G]stay with [C]you [G] [C]I could be handy, mending a fuse, when your lights have gone[G] [G]You can knit a sweater by the fireside, Sunday morning, go for a [C]ride [C]Doing the garden, digging the weeds, [C7]who could ask for more[F]?
