Intro: D A G D (twice)
D
The last fifty years have seen laughter and tears
A G D
And your hair slowly fade to gray
Your children are grown now and it's hard to believe how
A G D
The years have just all slipped away
Bm
But in time, you've gained a wisdom
A D
That seems to elude the young
Bm
And each line that now marks your face
A D
Tells the stories of all that you've done
G A G A D Bm
So fear not the passing of the days
A G A D
Like the song of the violin you only grow sweeter with age
D A G D
As time's pages turn you lived and you learned
What truly mattered most
Is family and friends and in the end
Finding peace in the path that you chose
CHORUS
solo D A G D (twice)
