Darlin' I am growin' older mmm
D7D7 G+G
Silver threads among the gold
G+G D7D7 G+G
Shine upon my brow today mmm
D7D7 G+G
Life is fading fast away
D7D7 G+G
But my darlin' you will be as you will be
A7A7 D7D7
Always young and fair to me
G+G D7D7 G+G
Yes my darlin' you will be
D7D7 G+G
Always young and fair to me
G+G D7D7 G+G
When your hair is silver white
D7D7 G+G
And your cheeks' no longer bright
G+G D7D7 G+G
With the roses of the May mmm
D7D7 G+G
I will kiss your lips and say
D7D7 G+G
Oh! My darling, mine alone, alone

You have never older grown

Yes, my darling, mine alone
D7D7 G+G
You have never older grown
