  			G                          C           G 
He looks in the mirror and spots a new wrinkle 

    C           G                        D7 
The gray in his hair sadly tells him the truth 

G                         C             G 
Time’s marching on to its own heartless drummer 

      C       G           D7          G 
It’ll never return to the days of his youth 


                           C          G 
He listens to Garth and he listens to Reba  

   C             G                       D7 
He loves country music but he says point blank 

G                                C            G 
They don’t make the songs now as good as they used to 

    C         G          D7        G 
And he misses Ernest and Lefty and Hank 


       D7                   G 
He’s a child of the fifties confused by the nineties 

C               G                          D7 
Sound bytes and web sites and violence and crime 

       G                        C           G 
And he says only two things get better with time 

                  D7        Em 
A good love and a bottle of wine 

  G               D7        G 
A good love and a bottle of wine 


                            C             G 
She wakes him up gently and whispers good morning 

    C              G                   D7 
She brings him his coffee one sugar no cream 

G                        C                 G 
He couldn’t tell you how long they’ve been married 

    C               G             D7          G 
But she’s still his angel and the girl of his dreams 


                                  C         G 
And tonight when they lie in that big bed together 

      C           G                            D7 
He’ll tell her he loves her he’ll hold her and then 

G                               C                  G 
They’ll talk about life and the roads that they’ve traveled 

    C             G            D7     G 
And he’ll say I’d sure like to do it again 


   D7                 G 
He saw the bridges of Madison county 
  
C      G                      D7 
Apollo 13 sent a chill up his spine 

       G                              C           G 
But he still says just two things get better with time 

                  D7        Em 
A good love and a bottle of wine 

  G               D7        G 
A good love and a bottle of wine 


   D7                        G 
Contentment’s a journey it’s no destination 

    C         G                         D7 
You live long enough and one day you’ll find 

     G                           C           G 
That there’s only two things get better with time 

                  D7        Em 
A good love and a bottle of wine 

  G               D7        G 
A good love and a bottle of wine
