C majorC G+G A minorAm
I had the notion to put life in motion.
C majorC G+G A minorAm
Make it breath. Make it read like an old gospel devotion.
C majorC G+G A minorAm
But when I close my eyes, surprised to find
C majorC G+G A minorAm
That what I carry with me is inescapably
FF C majorC F/GF/G C majorC
Just like an old song that brings you back home
FF A minorAm G+G FF
Like a sweet old melody, you take it with you when you go
FF C majorC FF C majorC
Like an old song that we?ve all heard before
FF A minorAm G+G FF
Gives us peace of mind, takes us back in time before we needed more.

I remember the day I lost your voice but could see your face
C majorC G+G A minorAm
Saying ?What?s up kid? with half a smile and a spirit that could stretch half a mile
C majorC G+G A minorAm
And I mourned you all over again, but I remember when
C majorC G+G A minorAm
I waited for you patiently so we could sing
FF C majorC FF C majorC
That old song that brings you back home
FF A minorAm G+G FF
Like a sweet old melody, you take it with you when you go
FF C majorC FF C majorC
Like an old song that we?ve all heard before
FF A minorAm G+G FF
Gives us peace of mind, takes us back in time before we needed more.

We?ve been married for 60 years.
A minorAm C majorC G+G A minorAm
That?s 22 thousand days of fear and laughter, peace and worry, fighting and making up.
C majorC G+G A minorAm
And after all that?s changed I still feel the same
C majorC G+G A minorAm
As that day in 1954 when I said I?d always be yours
FF C majorC FF C majorC
Like an old song that brings you back home

Like a sweet old melody, you take it with you when you go

Let me sing it to you like an old song that brings you back home

Like an old song that we?ve all heard before
