Today has been a special day
Am G
An anniversary a request
C Cmaj7
That you play your piano
Am G
As the evening sun slowly sets
Dm G
I never thought I'd get this old dear
Em Am
Never had a reason to live so long
Dm G
And the Lord's been like my shadow
Em Am
Even when I was wrong
F D G
No I never thought it would turn out this way
C Cmaj7
A birthday with apologies
Am G
For all the tears and regrets
C Cmaj7
And I've always saved your poetry

Am G
For these years when you forget
Dm G
I never thought I'd get this old dear
Em Am
Never had a reason to live so long
Dm G
And the Lord's been like my shadow
Em Am
Even when I was wrong
F D G G7
No I never thought it would turn out this way
C E
So sing with me softly
Am C
As the day turns to night
F
And later I'll dream
Em Dm
Of paradise with you
G C
I love you and good night
