60 Years On

Bm             A                       G              F#
Who'll walk me down to church when I'm sixty years of age
         Em                               F#
When the ragged dog they gave me has been ten years in the grave
Bm             A          G                F#
And señorita play guitar, play it just for you
Em                          F#                     Bm
My rosary has broken and my beads have all slipped through

Bm A E D Bm

Bm             A                      G              F#
You've hung up your greatcoat and you've laid down your gun
Em                               F#
You know the war you fought in wasn't too much fun
Bm             A                       G              F#
And the future you're giving me holds nothing for a gun
Em                               F#
I've no wish to be living sixty years on

Bm A E D Bm G F# E Bm E F#

Bm A E D Bm

Bm             A                       G              F#
Yes I'll sit with you and talk let your eyes relive again
Em                               F#
I know my vintage prayers would be very much the same
Bm             A                       G         F#
And Magdelena plays the organ, plays it just for you
Em                                      F#
Your choral lamp that burns so low when you are passing through
Bm             A                      G             F#
And the future you're giving me holds nothing for a gun
Bm             A                      Bm
I've no wish to be living sixty years on
