[G] had myself some [D] friends.

It's really [D] fine to have [Bm] a chance to [Em] hang around.
[A]
[G] Lie there by the [Am] fire [D] and watch the [G] evening tire.

And time around me whispers [G] when it's cold.
[D] The changes somehow frighten me, [G] still I have to [D] smile.
I don't know what to do, cause [E] it turns me [D] on to think of [G] growing old.
[D] But though my life's been good to me, [G] there's still so much to [D] do.
So many things my mind has [G] never known.
I'd [D] like to raise a family, [G] I'd like to sail [D] away.
[G] Dance across [D] the mountains [G] on the moon.
Yes I would.
