[F#] [E] [Bm]
[E] [A]
I wish, I wish, [E] I wish in vain I wish I was a young man [A] again
But a young man I [E] can never be Till apples grow on an [A] ivy tree
For love is pleasing [E] and love is teasing And love is a pleasure when first [A] it's new
But as it grows older, [E] sure love grows colder Than fades away like the [A] morning dew
There is a maid [E]
in our town It's there, my true [Bm] love, [E] she sits [A] her down
She takes a strange boy [E]
on her knee And she tells him
[Bm] things that [E] she once [A]
told me
For love is pleasing and [E]
love is teasing And love is a pleasure when first [A] it's new
But as it grows older, sure [E]
love grows colder Than fades away like the morning [A]
dew
For
[E]
[A]
love and porter [E] makes a young man older And love and whiskey makes him [A] old and grey
What cannot be cured, love, [E] must be endured, love And now I am bound for [A] America
For love is pleasing [E] and love is teasing And love is a pleasure when first [A] it's new
But as it grows older, sure [E] love grows colder Than fades away like the [A] morning dew
