Bm A Who'll walk me down to church Gmaj7 Bm When I'm sixty years of age Em When the ragged dog they gave me F#7 Has been ten years in the grave Bm A And señorita plays guitar Gmaj7 Bm Play it just for you Em My rosary has broken and F#7 Bm My beads have all slipped through Bm A You've hung up your great coat and Gmaj7 Bm You've laid down your gun Em You know the war you fought in F#7 Wasn't too much fun Chorus: Bm A And the future you're giving me Gmaj7 Bm Holds nothing for a gun Em I've no wish to be living F#7 Bm Sixty years on Yes, I'll sit with you and talk Let your eyes relive again I know my vintage prayers Would be very much the same And Magdelena plays the organ Plays it just for you Your choral lamp that burns so low When you are passing through Chorus: And the future you're giving me Holds nothing for a gun I've no wish to be living Sixty years on You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA  Em  F#7  Gm  Gmaj7  Gmaj  Bm  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
