C                
She sings songs sixty years old
                 F
Fourty years too late
           G                C
Resounding voice down our estate
C                  
It's only when she's asked of you,
                          F
Finds herself come unglued
      G              C
Oh my singer missing screws
C                          
Never knew him as this man,
                     F
Just a boy cap in hand
        G               C
Take me out in borrowed shoes


Am                         C
If we'd grown old together
Am                         C
If we'd grown old together


F                  G
Eyes might age and places fade
F                       G     
Skin gets thicker but I hope, 
                              C
I hope, I hope we'll feel the same

They would stand side by side, 
                          F
Placards pinched in their fists
        G               C
Staring dead across the picket lines
C                             
And how he'd cup a cigarette, 
                               F
Saying "I know we'll get there yet"
      G                        C
And I know we would stood with you

                              C
I hope, I hope we'll feel the same

Fourty years too late
          G             C
You could see it in her face
C
So I put you on a train
Going Sheffield to Boston
F              G
  You'll find work, 
                 C
I'll work right here
C                          
Never knew you as this man,
                   F
Just a boy cap in hand
         G           C
And your kisses were free

If we'd grown old together


F                  G
Eyes might age and places fade
F                        G
Skin gets thicker as our bodies wrinkle
F                    G
Hair fall out as our ideals falter
F                      G     
Kingdoms crumble but I hope, 
                              C
I hope, I hope we'll feel the same
