[C#m] [F#m] [Bm] [Dm]
[A]
When I [F] was a young [F#m] man courting [D#] the girls, I [E] played me a waiting [F#m] game.
[D#] If a [F] maid refused [F#m] me with tossing curls, [G#m] I'd let the [E] old earth [Am] take a couple [F#m] of whirls,
while I plied her with tears [A] in lieu [D#] of pearls.
And as [Bm] time came [G#m] around, [A] she came my [F#m] way.
[Dm] As time came [E] around, she [E] [A] came.
When [Bm] you meet [E] with the young [A] girls early in the spring, [C#] you court [E] them in song [A] and rhyme.
They [E] answer with [A] words and a [A#] clover ring, but [F#] if you could examine [F#m] the goods they bring,
[D] they have little to offer but the [A] songs they [F#m]
sing.
And a [Bm] plentiful [E]
waste of [A] time of [F#m] day.
[Bm] A plentiful [E]
waste of [A] time.
Oh, it's a [D]
long, long while
[F] from May to [A]
December, [F#m] but the days grow [B] short
[G] When [A] you reach September, when the [D] autumn [Am] weather [Em] [Am]
turns [F] the leaves to [A] flame,
[F#m]
One hasn't got [A]
[B] time [Bm] for the waiting [A] game.
Oh, [Dm] the days dwindle down to [D#] a precious [D#m] few.
[G] September,
[Dm] [D#]
November, [D#m]
and these few [D] precious days
[F] I'll [A] spend with you.
[F#] These [B] precious days [B] [G] I'll spend with [A] you.
