Elliott Murphy – Never As Old As You (Guitar)

E                         A              B
I heard you say you were notorious and glorious

        E                  A
Well I say that's a funny name

                       B
For a girl I went to high school with

A                               E
Who used to give me lunch time change

     A                        B      E                A
And show all the boys the back seats of your daddy's car

                       B
I can't believe your stories

A                  E
Nobody grows that far

         A                       B
And you lied and I cried I was mystified

            E          A
When I was 16 yes its true

                                B        
But there's one thing that I'm sure of

       A                 E
I'll never be as old as you

E                 A          B
I got a parakeet missionary among canaries

    E                            A
Who always tells the same dirty joke

                              B
About he holy ghost and his roman gang

A                           E
The time they did too much coke

     A                 B      E                      A
An walked around holy city laughing at statutes of saints

                   B
I told my bird to quit it

A                  E
Canaries usually faint

         A                       B
And you lied and I cried I was mystified

            E          A
When I was 16 yes its true

                                B        
But there's one thing that I'm sure of

       A                 E
I'll never be as old as you

E             A              B
I get local delivery of your misery

          E                A
Even the milkman leaves a note

                       B
And the neighbors sure were very shocked

A                               E
About your drawbridge and your moat

     A                   B        E                  A
I mean once a night is enough for all that chivalry stuff

                    B
Baby put down your armor

A                  E
Your pokers only a bluff

         A                       B
And you lied and I cried I was mystified

            E          A
When I was 16 yes its true

                                B        
But there's one thing that I'm sure of

       A                 E
I'll never be as old as you

         A                       B
And you lied and I cried I was mystified

            E          A
When I was 16 yes its true

                                B        
But there's one thing that I'm sure of

       A                                       E
I'll never, never, never, never, be as old as you
