G                                                                                           D7

When I get older, losing my hair, many years from  now,

                                                                                              G

will you still be sending me a Valentine, birthday greetings, bottle of wine?

                                                         G7                         C

If I'd been out 'till quarter to three,would you lock the door?

                        Eb7       G               E7            A7          D7     G 

Will you still need me, will you still feed me, when I'm  sixty- four?

You'll be older, too.

Aaah, and if you say the word, I could stay with you.

I could be handy, mending a fuse, when your lights have gone.

                                                                                              G

You can knit a sweater by the fireside, sunday mornings, go for a ride.

Doing the garden, digging the weeds, who could ask for more?

Will you still need me, will you still feed me, when I'm sixty four?

Every summer we can rent a cottage in the Isle of Wight if it's not to dear.

Em                              B7

We shall scrimp and save.

Ah, grandchildren on your knee, Vera, Chuck, and Dave.

Send me a postcard, drop me a line stating point of view.

                                                                                              G

Indicate precisely what you mean to say, yours sincerely wasting away.
