C7        Gm                         F     C
The strange logic of your clumsiest line
C7        Gm                  F  C
It stayed emblazoned on my mind
        Bb           Gm
You say break up the family
        Bb           Gm
And let's begin to live our lives

   C        F                  C        C7
I want to see all my friends tonight
    Gm
It wasn't youth, it wasn't life
     F            C         C7
Born old, sadly wise
       Gm
Resigned (well, we were)
      F         C
To ending our lives

     Bb            Gm
I'm so glad to grow older
  Bb                   Gm
To move away from those awful times
C              F                C     C7
I want to see all my friends tonight
 Gm
Yes you found love but you weren't
     F                C     C7
At peace with your life
       Gm
Home late, full of hate
         F             C
Despise the ties that bind

     Bb             Gm
oh I'm so glad to grow older
     Bb                  Gm
To move away from those younger years
  C                F
I'm in love for the first time
       C              C7
And I don't feel bad

Bb                 Gm     F
Let me see all my old friends
Bb                 Gm     F
Let me put my arm around them
C                     F
Because I really do love them
            C              C7
Now, does that sound mad?

             Gm
Captain of games, solid framed
     F                C     C7
I stood on the touchline
         Gm
Hailstones, driven home
                F            C
In his car-no brakes? I don't mind

   Bb                   Gm
I'm just so glad to grow older
   Bb                   Gm
To move away from those darker years
 C                    F
I'm in love for the first time
          C            C7
And I don't feel bad
               F
So wish me luck my friends
   C
Goodbye
