_ _ _ _ _ _ [A] When I was a young [Gm] man courting the girls, [A] I played me a [Gm] waiting game.
_ _ [Cm] If a maid [B] refused [Gm] me with tossing [Ab] curls, [A] I'd let the old [Eb] earth take a couple of whirls,
while [F] I plied her with tears [Gm] in place of [Eb] pearls.
_ [A] And as time came [Eb] around, she came my way.
[Cm] As time [A] came around, [Bb] she came.
_ But _ _ it's [G] a long, long [Gb] while from May to [Bb] _ _ December,
_ [Gm] _ [Bb] and the days [C] grow _ _ short [Ebm] _ when you reach [Bb] _
September.
_ _ And the autumn [G] weather _ _ [Gb] _ _ turns the leaves [Bb] to flame, _ _ _
and I haven't got [C] _ time _ [Ebm] _
for the [Bb] waiting _ game. _
_ _ _ And the [Ebm] wind dwindles down _ to [E] a precious brew,
_ _ [Em] _ _ [Ebm] _ September, _
_ _ _ _ _ [E] _ November,
[Db] _ _ [Bb] _ and _ these [G] few vintage years [Gb] _ I'd share with [Bb] you.
_ _ [Gm] _ _
[Dm] These vintage [C] _ _ _ years [Ebm] I'd share _ _ [Bb] with [Eb] you.
_ [Bb] _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ _ _ [Fm] _ _ _
_ _ _ [C] _ [Am] _ _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ It's [Cm] a long, _ _ _ [Ab] long while from May to [C] _ December, _ _
and the days grow [Gb] short _ _ when you [Am] reach September. _
_ _ And I [Cm] have lost one tooth, _ [Ab] and I walk [C] a little _ lame,
_ _ and I [D] haven't got _ _ time _ for [Fm] the waiting [C] _ [Am] _ game. _ _
[C] And [Fm] the days turn to gold [Gb] as they grow few,
_ [Fm] _
September, _ _ _ [Gb] _ _ November,
_ [Eb] _ _ [Am] _ and these [C] few _ [Cm] golden _ days [Ab]
I'd spend [C] with you. _ _ _
_ These golden [D] _ _ _
days [F] I'd spend _ [Fm] _ _
[C] with you. _ _ _ _ _
_ [G] When you meet [Ab] with the young [Gb] men early in spring,
[G] they court [Abm] you in [Am] song and [Gb] rhyme.
_ [Db] They [Abm] woo you with [Am] words in a [Eb] clover ring.
_ [D] But if [Eb] you [Am] examine the goods they bring,
they have [G] little to offer [Gb] but the songs they sing,
_ [Dm] and a [Abm] plentiful [Am] waste of [Gb] time of day,
_ [Dm] a plentiful [G] waste [C] of [Am] time. _ _ _
_ [C] But it's [Cm] a long, long _ [Ab] while from May to [C] _ _
December.
_ Will the clover [D] ring _ last _ [Fm] _ till you [C] reach _ [Am] September?
_ _ And I'm [A] not quite equipped _ [Ab]
for the waiting [C] game, _ _ _
but I [D] have a little money, _ _ _ and [Fm] I have [Am] a little _ fame.
_ _ _ [C] _ [Fm] And the days dwindle down [Gb] to a precious few,
_ [Fm] September, _ _ _ _
[Gb] _ _ November,
_ _ [Eb] _ [C] _
and [E] these few [Cm] precious days _ [Ab] I'd spend [C] with you.
_ _ _ _ These [D] precious _ _ days [F] I'd [Fm]
spend _ with _ [C] you. _
