[C]
As I approach [G] the prime of my life, I [Em] find I [C] have the time of my life,
Learning to enjoy at my leisure [B] all [Bb] the simple pleasures,
[D] And so I happily [C] concede.
[G] This is [A] all I [Dm]
ask, [G]
this is all I [C] need.
Beautiful girls,
[G] walk a little slower [Dm] when you walk [D]
[C] by me.
Lingering sunsets, [Dm] stay a little [B] longer [C] with the lonely [B] sea.
Children [Em] everywhere, when you shoot at bad men, [A] shoot [Bb] at [B] [Gbm] me.
[B] [Db] Take [Ab] [C] me to that [Ab] strange enchanted [D] land, [Bm]
[Dm] [Bb] [G] grown-ups seldom [Abm] understand.
[G]
[C] Wandering rainbows, [G] leave a bit of color [Dm] for my [D] heart [C] to own.
Stars in the sky,
[Db] make [Dm] my wish come [B] true [C] before the night
[E] has flown.
And let the [F] music play [Gbm] as long as [C] there's a song
[Bbm] to sing.
[A]
[Dm] And I will [C] stay [F] younger
[Am] than spring.
