[Am] [Em]
[G] [Dm] When I [E] was a young [G] man courting the [C] girls, [F]
I played me [G] the waiting game.
[C] If a [Fm] girl refused me [G] with [Eb] tossing curves, [F] I let [B] the old earth [Em] take a couple of whirls.
While [Gb] I plied [Abm] her with tears [Em] in lieu of [Am] pearls, and as time [Ab] came around, [G] she came [Em] my way.
And [Bb] as time [E] came around, [A] she came.
Oh, [Em]
it's a [D] long, [Cm] long while [Ab] from May to [C] December.
[D]
[C] But the [E] days grow [D] short when [Dm] you [G] reach [A]
September.

weather [C] [D] turns [Fm] the leaves to [C] flame,

for the waiting [C] game.
Oh, [F] the [D] days dwindle down to [Gb] a [Eb] precious few.
