while there are songs still to be sung, new words to grace the page
   C                                G

And so while wishing that we'll all see better days
 Am                              F
my secret feeling is I'm happy in my ways
 C                         Am          G
an inner smile comes on me thinking of the past
Am                           F
but I won't sigh for days gone by
