From the album Odessa

G G/B x4

             G  G/B
When you're too old
    C       G
to hit the timbers
          C      G
but you still remember
     D
the sound of the planks

          G     G/B
When the snow's deep
    C     G
in mid December,
      C          G
You think of September
       D              G
and a girl you once knew

             D
Well you're too tired to sleep
            C           G
and you're too old to think
        C             G
So you pour another drink
          D                   G
and you swear this one's the last

G G/B x2

          G     G/B
When the moon shines
C        G
in your window
         C        G
and you hear the wind blow
          D
and you awake with the past

           G    G/B
Well, the moon she's
  C         G
bright and yellow
          C           G
and the phone says, "hello,"
         D              G
but you want to put it down

             D
Well you're too tired to sleep
            C           G
and you're too old to think
        C             G
So you pour another drink
          D                   G
and you swear this one's the last
          D                   G
and you swear this one's the last
          D                   G
