After 23 years
They [Eb] say you've been twice a wife
And you're through with life
Aww, [Cm] but honey, what the [F] hell's it for?
After [Eb] 23 years

45 years from now

On stage every night
[F] I've been reaching out
To find your friend _
[Cm] Who knows all the words
[Eb] sings so she's [F] heard and knows how all the stories end
and [Bb] maybe after the show [Eb] she'll ask [Bbm] me to go [F] home
with her for a drink or two
[Cm] now her smile lights her [Eb] eyes
but honey, [F] all I [Bb] see is [Eb] you
_ _ [Bb] _
[Eb] and I just wanna hold you closer
than I've ever [Bb] held anyone _ [Bb] before
you [Eb] say you've been twice a wife
and you're through with life
oh [Cm] but honey, what the [F] hell's it for?
[Eb] after 23 years you'd think I could [Bb] find a way
to [Eb] let you know [Bb] somehow
that [Cm] I wanna see your smiling [F] face 45 years [Bb] from [F] now
