[C]When I get older losing my hair, many years from [G7]now,
Will you still be sending me a Valentine?
[G7]↓Birthday greetings, [C]↓bottle of wine?
[C]If I'd been out to quarter to three
[C7]Would you lock the [F]door?

[C]I could be handy mending a fuse, when your lights have [G7]gone
You can knit a sweater by the fireside,

[C]Doing the garden, digging the weeds,
[C7]Who could ask for [F]more?

[Am]Ev'ry summer we could rent a cottage in the Isle of [G]Wight,
If it's not too [Am]dear
We shall scrimp and [E7]save (2  3  4,  1  2  3  4)
([Am]1  2  3  4) Grandchildren [Dm]on your knee

{c:verse 3}
[C]Send me a post-card, drop me a line,
Stating point of [G7]view
Indicate precisely what you mean to say,
[G7]↓"Yours sincerely [C]↓wasting away."
[C]Give me your answer, fill in a form,
[C7]Mine forever [F]more
