 C                                                 G
When I get old and losing my hair many years from now,
 G7
Will you still be senting me
                                C
a Valentine birthday greetings bottle of wine?
If I'd been out 'till quarter to three
 C7                 F
would you lock the door?
                Fm       C
Will you still need me, will you still
 A7       D7       G7     C  G C
feed me, when I'm sixty-four?

  Am   G   Am
(Mmm  mmm  mmm)
  Am             E7
You'll be older too.
 Am               Dm
(Aah) And if you say the word,
F         G        C  G G7
I could stay with you.

I could be handy mending a fuse
when your lights have gone.
You can knit a sweater by the fireside,
Sunday mornings go for a ride.
Doing the garden, digging the weeds,
who could ask for more?
Will you still need me, will you still feed me,
when I'm sixty-four?

 Am
Every summer we can rent a cottage
                G                   Am
in the Isle of Wight if it's not to dear.
Am                   E7
We shall scrimp and save.
 Am                 Dm
(Aah) Grandchildren on your knee,
 F     G7         C   G  G7
Vera, Chuck, and Dave.

Send me a postcard, drop me a line,
stating point of view.
Indicate precisely what you mean to say,
yours sincerely wasting away.
Give me your answer, fill in a form, mine
forever more.
Will you still need me, will you still feed me,
when I'm sixty-four?
