[Verse 1]
Dmaj7
Many years from now,
D7 B7 Em
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
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?

G Gm
"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

[Verse 3]
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

[Verse 4]
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!)

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
You may wistfully re - call...
D7 B7
...How Benjamin Dis - raeli said that,
Em Gm
..."Life is too short to be small!"
D Dmaj7 D7 B7
Or maybe,...like some old -time song, over all it's long,
Em7 A7 D Dm7b5 Bb D
So, ...so long, ...it's all over!
