[INTRO:] G* G G* G G* G G* G
[VERSE 1:]
The doorknob needs mending
C ~ Am
Letters need sending
D
The kitchen's a disgrace
Am D
Grease all over the place
[VERSE 2:]
G
I see your pretty picture
C ~ Am
The one you gave me last Easter
D
Has a moustache drawn in green
Am D
Where your lipstick should have been
[CHORUS:]
G Em C Am
You never think of time, 'til it passes you by
D Am D
Never miss the water, 'til the well runs dry
G Em C Am
You never count the days, 'til the nights grow cold
D Am D
Never think you're aged, 'til you realise you're old
[VERSE 3:]
G
The ashtrays are brimful
C ~ Am
My secrets are sinful
D
And I drink a lot now
Am D
It's the only friend I've got now
[VERSE 4:]
G
I'd write you a letter
C ~ Am
But there's a hole in my sweater
D
And I need to mend it
Am D
So I wouldn't have the time to send it
[CHORUS:]
G Em C Am
You never think of time, 'til it passes you by
D Am D
Never miss the water, 'til the well runs dry
G Em C Am
You never count the days, 'til the nights grow cold
D Am D
Never think you're aged, 'til you realise you're old
[VERSE 5:]
G
I could not live with you
C ~ Am
But it's so hard without you
D
I'm a helpless case
Am D
A misfit social disgrace
[VERSE 6:]
G
Maybe next century
C ~ Am
I'll come to my senses
D
Work out the reason why
Am D
You never miss the water, 'til the well runs dry
[CHORUS:]
G Em C Am
You never think of time, 'til it passes you by
D Am D
Never miss the water, 'til the well runs dry
G Em C Am
You never count the days, 'til the nights grow cold
D Am D
Never think you're aged, 'til you realise you're old
