Amanda Somerville lyrics : "When I'm Sixty-Four"
[Intro:]
C F G C
C When I'm old and losing my hair, many years from G7 now,
Will you still be sending me a Valentine?
Birthday greetings, C bottle of wine?
If I'd been out to quarter to three
C7 Would you lock the F door?
Will you still Fm need me, C will you still A feed me,
D When I'm G7 sixty- C four?
Am G Am
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 G7 gone.
You can knit a sweater by the fireside,
Sunday mornings C go for a ride.
Doing the garden, digging the weeds,
C7 Who could ask for F more?
Will you still Fm need me, C will you still A feed me,
D When I'm G7 sixty- C four?
Am Ev'ry summer we could rent a cottage in the Isle of G Wight,
If it's not too Am dear
Am We shall scrimp and E save
Am Grandchildren Dm on your knee
F Vera, G Chuck and C Dave G
C Send me a post-card, drop me a line,
Stating point of G7 view
Indicate precisely what you mean to say,
Yours sincerely C wasting away
Give me your answer fill in a form,
C7 Mine forever F more
Will you still Fm need me, C will you still A feed me,
D When I'm G7 sixty- C four?
