Dmaj7                             D7           B7              Em
 Many years from now, when your grandchildren climb upon your knee,
    Gm                          D
You may be quite astonished to see...
              E7                          A
...How many channels they can change on T.V.
      A7       D                Dmaj7          D7
When some old film in black and white ...comes on,
              B7             Em
And there you are upon the screen,
           Gm                              D
Or is it someone just like someone you've been,
        E7                      A
Looking not a day over nine - teen?

"Grandad!", the little ones are asking you,
  D         F#m      Bm         D/A
"Why do you look so sad?" (So-- sad---!)
        E7
So you tell them all about the fun you had!

 D        Aaug                D     D7
Back in '64 before you were born,
 B7            B         B7     Em
People had no time for pouring scorn...
                A                  A7
         ...On dreams of love and peace,
(...Or scoring porn----!)

D                  E           E7           A
No one was obese, only tight trousers were worn!

  D       Aaug                    D     D7
Back in '64 we were at it like knives,
  G                          F#          G              Bdim
Back in '64 the time of our lives ...was in the present tense!
          D                B7
Now does that make common sense,
     E7                    A7                   D
Any more than girls with hairdos called bee - hives?
                          Aaug
(Zumm, zumm, zumm, zumm!)

 D       Aaug                D     D7
Back in '64 before you were born,
 G                           F#
Back in '64 before you were born,
        G                Bdim         D           B7
But as you've gone on and on, your audience has flown,
     E7
And, as you find yourself all on your own...

Aaug        D           Dmaj7          D7            B7
 You may wistfully re - call ...how Benjamin Dis - raeli said that,
Em                               Gm
    ..."Life is too short to be small!"...

                 D                  Dmaj7   D7            B7
Or may---be, ...like some old -time song,  over all it's long,
       Em7       A7             D     Dm7b5   Bb    D
So, ...so long,   ...it's all over!
