Fº Fº * C Am
When I was a young man a-courtin' the girls,
Fº Fº * C
I played me a waitin' game;
Fº Fº * C Am
If a maid refused me with a toss of her curls,
I'd lFet the ol' woGrld take a coupCle of twirAmls,
And I'd pFly her with tears instead oCf pearls, Am
Fº Fº * C Am
And as time came around she came my way,
Fº Fº * G G7
As time came around, she came.
But it's a loFng, long time Fm7 from May to DeceCmber, C/B Am
And the AmdayGs grow sD7hort Dm7 when you rG7each SeptCember; C
When the autumn wFeatherFm turns the leaves to fClame, C/B Am
One AmhasGn't got tDime Dm7 for the wG7aiting gaCme. C
Oh, the dFays dwindle down to a pFm7recious few... Fm7
SepDm7-tem-ber...No-vem-ber... G
And tG7hese few pFrecious days Fm7 I'll spend with Cyou, C/B Am
These preAmcioGus daDys I'll spDm7end with yCou.
Oh, the dFays dwindle down to a pFm7recious few.Fm7..
Sep-Dm7tem-ber...No-vem-ber... G
And thG7ese few preFcious days Fm7 I'll spend with yCou, C/B Am
These prA/Gecious daDys
Dm7 Dm7/5- C F Fº * Fº Dm7/5- C
I'll spend with you.
Fº Fº * C Am
When you meet with the young men in the early Spring
Fº Fº * C
They'll count you with wine and with song
Fº Fº * C Am
They'll woo you with words and a clover ring
But Fif you exGamine the gCoods that they bAmring
They have lFittle to offer but the sCongs that they sAming
Fº Fº * C Am
And a plentiful waste of time of day
Fº Fº * G G7
A plentiful waste of time
(Repeat Refrain)
