When I'm Sixty-Four

G                                                 D7
When I get older, losing my hair, many years from now,
D7                                                                                      G
Will you still be sending me a Valentine, birthday greeting, bottle of wine?
G7                         C
If I'd been out 'till quarter to three, would you lock the door?
D#7         G                 E7
Will you still need me, will you still feed me
A7           D7     G
When I'm sixty-four?

Em               D                 Em
Hmm------mmm------mmmh.
Em                   B7
You'll be older, too.
Em                     Am
Aaah, and if you say the word,
C          D7         G
I could stay with you.

G                                                 D7
I could be handy mending a fuse when your lights have gone.
D7                                                                                      G
You could knit a sweater by the fireside, Sunday mornings, go for a ride.
G                                                             G7                        C
Tending the garden, digging the weeds—who could ask for more?
D#7          G                 E7
Will you still need me, will you still feed me
A7          D7     G
When I'm sixty four?

Em                                                                            D                            Em
Every summer we could rent a cottage on the Isle of Wight, if it's not too dear.
Em                             B7    Em                        Am                 C       D7              G
We would scrimp and save. Ah, grandchildren on your knee: Vera, Chuck, and Dave.

G                                                                              D7
Send me a postcard, drop me a line stating point of view.
D7                                                                                   G
Indicate precisely what you mean to say, yours, sincerely wasting away.
G7                C
Give me your answer, fill in a form, mine forever more.
D#7         G                 E7
Will you still need me, will you still feed me
