-3* 4 4 4 -5* -5*
When I was a young man
-5 -5 -5 -3*
court-ing the girls,
-3* 4 4 4 -5* -5* -5
I played me a wait-ing game.
-3*-3* 4 4 -5* -5*
If a maid re-fused me
-5* -5 -5 -6
with toss-ing curls,
-6 -5* -5* -5* 7
I let the old earth
7 7 -6 -6 -6 -7*
take a cou-ple of whirls,
-3* -3* 4 4 4 -5* -5* -5 -5 7
While I plied her with tears in lieu of pearls.
-3* -3* 4 4 4 -5* -5* -5 -5 -3*
And as time came a-round she came my way.
-3* 4 4 4 -5* -5* -5
As time came a-round, she came.
-3* -5 -7 7 7 7
Oh, it’s a long, long while
-3* -3* 4* -6* -6 -6
from May to De-cem-ber,
-5 -5 -6 -7* 8
But the days grow short
5 5 -3* 4 -5 -5
when you reach Sep-tem-ber.
-3* -3* -5 -7 7 7
When the au-tumn weath-er
-3* -3* 4* -6* -6
turns the leaves to flame,
-5 -6 -6 -7* 8 5 5 -5* -5* -5
One has-n’t got time for the wait-ing game.
-7* -7* 8 -7* -7 -7* -7*-7* 8* -7* -7*
Oh, the days dwind-le down to a prec-ious few
-7* 8 -7* -7* 8* -7*
Sep-tem-ber, No-vem-ber.
-3* -5 -7 7 7 7
And these few pre-cious days
-3* 4* -6* -6 -5 -6 -7* 8
I’ll spend with you. These pre-cious days,
7 -7* -7 -7*
I’ll spend with you.
