...ONE FOOT IN THE GRAVE... TV Theme ---------------------------......... *from the TV Series 1990* *(OPENING CREDITS)* Intro: C7 Verse 1:

           F
They say I might as well face the truth;

That I am just too long in the tooth.

          C7
So I'm an OAP and weak-kneed,

           F
But I have not yet quite gone to seed.

Bridge 1:

         F        F#dim          F         C7
I may be over the hill, now that I have re-tired.

F          F#dim        F          C7
 Fading aw-ay, but I've not yet ex-pired.

F             F#dim     F          D7
 Clapped out, run down, too old to save;

D7   C7          F
 One Foot in the grave.

*(CLOSING CREDITS)* Intro: C7 Verse 1:

           F
They say I might as well face the truth;

That I am just too long in the tooth.

I've started to deteriorate,

             F
And now I've passed my own sell-by date.

Verse 2:

Oh, I am no spring chicken it's true.

I have to pop my teeth in to chew.

I've just got too many miles on the clock.

Bridge 1:

         F        F#dim    F         C7
So I'm a wrinkly, crinkly, set in my ways.

It's true that my body has seen better days.

But give me have a chance and I can still misbe-have.

 One foot in the grave,

D7   C7          F     D7
 One foot in the grave,

D7   C7          F
 One foot in the grave.
