This next song is about an older man and a much younger woman.
Tragic.
It's called Olvidembe.
Thank you.
[Dm]
[Em]
[Am]
[Em]
[Am] Old enough to be her dad
But their young men were just mad
They [Bb] nursed their grievances
But she [Gm] was flattered by his charm
It [Bb] wouldn't do her any [E] harm
They'd all [A] had their chances
He [Dm] sent her flowers and limousines
She was treated like a [F] queen
And anything she ever wanted
[Bb] It was no problem for a man like him
[Gm] And everyone expected soon
That she [F] could ask him to the [Gm] moon
And she would wear [A] his ring
No [Am] one glances from his friends
In the homes that do weekends
Of [Bb] high society
But [D] he didn't give a damn
He [Bb] never felt more like a [E] man
And all the time [A] the clock was ticking
[Bb] Of Olvidembe
[A] The older man
[Dm] And his beautiful young wife
And [C] so [Bb] Olvidembe
[A]
[Dm]
[E]
In a [Am] house upon the hill
She was there with time to kill
She [Bb] lived the life she'd only dreamed
That life was never what it seemed
To all her [Gm] friends that she'd ignored
[Bb] She'd deny that she was [E] born
She had no [A] time for dancing
No time for this
[A] But [Dm] the clock upon the wall
That was ticking in the hall
[F] Always [Bb] reminded her
That [D] life was going on elsewhere
[Bb] She was happy and she'd [E] swear
She wouldn't [A] change a thing
[A] For [Bb] Olvidembe
The [A] older man
[Dm] And his beautiful young wife
And
[C] [Bb] so Olvidembe
[D] [Dm]
[D] [E]
[Dm]
[E]
[D] Now [Gm] it's five o'clock a.m.
She must have spent the night again
With that old [Bb] friend of hers
She loves to [Eb] dance
[F] She's [Bb] missing more and more these days
[G] But I'm still stuck in my old ways
Perhaps she needs a little more [Eb] [Bb] romance
[F] [Gm] But the clock upon the wall
Is still ticking in the hall
She must be [E] home soon
[Em] Where a [Bb] younger man would [D] weep
He [C] takes a pill and goes to sleep
[Dm]
Now [E] Olvidembe
The older man
And [Dm] his beautiful young wife
