[A] [C]
[Am]
[G] [C] [Am]
[C]
[Am]
[C] [A] I had [C] the notion [G]
to put [Am] life in motion
And make [C] it breathe, make [G] it read like an [Am] old gospel devotion
But when [C] I close [G] my eyes, [Am] I'm surprised to find
That what [C] I carry with me is
[Am] inescapably
Just like [F] an [C] old song
[F] Brings you [D] [C] back home
Like [F] a sweet [Am] old melody
You [G] take it with you when you [F] go
Like an [C] old song
We've all heard before
Gives [F] us peace of [Am] mind
Takes us back in time
[G] Before we meet in [F] mold
When
[C] I
[Am] remember [G] [C] the day
I [G] lost your voice
You could [E] still see your [C] face
Saying, what's up kid?
[G]
Half a [Am] smile and a spirit
You could stretch half [B] a mile
[C] And I'd mourn [G] you all over again
But I [A] remember [Am]
when
I [C] waited [G] for you patiently
So we could [Am]
sing
[C] That old song
That [D] brings you back home
[F] Like a [Am] sweet old melody
You [G] take it with you when you [F] go
Like an [C] old song
We've all heard before
Gives [F] us peace of mind
[Am] Takes us back in time
[G] Before we meet in [F] mold
Yeah
[C]
[G]
[F] [C]
We've been married for 60 years
[G] That's 22 [Am],000 days of [C] fear and laughter
[G] Peace and worry, [Am] fighting and waking up
But [A]
[C] after [G] all that's changed
I [A] still feel the same
As [C] that day in [G] 1954
When [Am] I said I'd always be yours
Like an [C] old song
That brings you back home
[F] Like a sweet [Am] old melody
You [G] take it with you when you [F] go
Like an old song
We've all [A] heard [C] before
[F] Gives us peace of [Am] mind
Takes us back in [G] time
Before we meet in [F] mold
Let me sing it to you
Like an [C] old song
That brings you [D] back [C] home
[F] Like a sweet [Am] old melody
You take [G] it with you when you [F] go
Just like an [G] old [C]
song
We've [G] all heard [C] before
Gives us peace of mind
[Am] Takes us back in time
[G] Before we meet in mold Yeah
[C]
