When I was Your Age

Dm                       Am7                          Gm

When I was your age the grandfather said

                          Bb               F                                  C              

My father had just returned from the war

Dm                Am7                                Gm

and in my day the great grandfather said

Bb                      F                     C

Horse and carts passed by my door

F                                C

and when I was your age my son

Gm                       Dm

said the father smiling

Gm                        F                  A

My heroes were John Glenn and Yuri Gagarin

 

Do you live your life for tomorrow ?

Do you live you life for today ?

Are you astrologer or Palmist

Has technology improved the sociology

or are we head hunters still

 

Who knows what will happen by the time you’re twenty

Will they have built tunnels to the stars ?

Will they have computers that can love you ?

Will they have cars that can drive their own way home ?

Will it rain and sunshine will snow still chill you to the bone ?

Or will we all live in an astrodome ?
