There was a time when we could dance until a quarter to ten.

                          C         G                         C   Ab G
We never thought it would end then, we never thought it would end.

C          G                             C             G
We used to carry on and drink and do the rock and roll.

                        C
We never thought we get older

G                            C        Ab G
We'd never thought it'd grow cold but now

C             Eb
Gotta get up, gotta get out,

Down by the sea she knew a sailor who had been to war.

                      C              G                         C   Ab G
She never even knew a sailor before, she never even knew his name.

C            G                                 C              G
He'd come to town and he would pound her for a couple of days

                              C
And then he'd sail across the bubbly waves

G                    C                 Ab G
And those those were happier days, but now

C             Eb
