verse:
C minorCm         FF    Bb majorBb
The boy was almost 48 years old
     C minorCm      FF       Bb majorBb
All he'd ever gone to bed with was a cold
  A minorAm              G minorGm
And he said to his momma  momma I'm afraid it's true
   C minorCm              FF
Only woman that could love me is you

The girl could almost drink her age in beer
    C minorCm   FF       Bb majorBb
Couple cases give or take a year
A minorAm                G minorGm
She worked at the hospital  hey lots of people do
    C minorCm                 FF
That's where they fell in love  oh God I wish that was true

        Eb MajorEb       Bb majorBb
But they never met  not even briefly
        A minorAm                G minorGm
I know what you thought  you thought that they might
         Eb MajorEb            Bb majorBb
Now what was the problem  the problem was chiefly
        C minorCm        FF     Bb majorBb
She worked the day shift and he worked the night

bridge:
      Eb MajorEb        Bb majorBb
They never met  not even informally
      A minorAm                G minorGm
I know you thought things like this work out right
          Eb MajorEb        Bb majorBb
No no  they never met  not even abnormally
        C minorCm        FF     Bb majorBb
She worked the day shift and he worked the night

verse:
  C minorCm       FF    Bb majorBb
And now the boy is almost 59
       C minorCm       FF           Bb majorBb   G minorGm
You ask him "how's it goin' Frank?\
