Today has
[G] been a special day,
[Am] an anniversary,
[G] a request
[C] That you play [G] your piano
[Am] as the evening
[G] sun slowly sets
[Dm] I never thought I'd [G] get this old, dear
[Em] Never had a reason [Am] to live so long
[Dm] And the Lord's been [G] like my shadow
[Em] Even when
[Am] I was wrong
[F] No, I never thought it [D] would turn out
[G] this way
[G]
[C] A birthday
[G] with apologies
[A] For all the tears [G] and regrets
And [C] I've always saved [G] your poetry
[Am] For these years [G] when you forget
[Dm] I never thought I'd [G] get this old, dear
[Em] Never had a reason
[Am] to live so long
[Dm] And the Lord's been like [G] my shadow
[Gm]
[Em] Even when [Am] I was wrong
[C] No, [F] I never thought [D] it would turn out [G] this way
So [C] sing [E] with me softly
[Am] As the [C] day turns to night and later [F] I'll dream
[Em] Paradise with [Dm] you
[G] I love you and [C] goodnight
[N]
