Poems, Prayers and Promises

D G D I've been lately thinking About my life's time G All the things I've done And how it's been D G And I can't help believing In my own mind D G I know I'm gonna hate to see it end D G D I've seen a lot of sunshine Slept out in the rain G Spent a night or two all on my own D G D I've known my lady's pleasures Had myself some friends G And spent a night or two in my own home G A7 D G And I have to say it now It's been a goodlife all in all D Em A7 It's really fine To have a chance to hang around Em G D G And lie there by the fire And watch the evening tire D Bm7 While all my friends and my old lady Em A7 Sit and pass the pipe around G Fm And talk of poems and prayers and promis es G D And things that we believe in Em G A7 How sweet it is to love someone How right it is to care G Fm How long it's been since yesterday Em D And what about tomorrow Fm G A7 And what about our dreams And all the memories we share DGD D The days they pass so quickly now G D Nights are seldom long G And time around me whispers when it's cold D The changes somehow frighten me G D Still I have to smile G It turns me on to think of growing old D For though my life's been good to me G D There's still so much to do G So many things my mind has never known D I'd like to raise a family G D I'd like to sail away G And dance across the mountains on the moon G A7 D G And I have to say it now It's been a goodlife all in all D Em A7 It's really fine To have a chance to hang around Em G D G And lie there by the fire And watch the evening tire D Bm7 While all my friends and my old lady Em A7 Sit and pass the pipe around G Fm And talk of poems and prayers and promis es G D And things that we believe in Em G A7 How sweet it is to love someone How right it is to care G Fm How long it's been since yesterday Em D And what about tomorrow Fm G A7 And what about our dreams And all the memories we share
