Tom: C

C7              F
I'm pushing on seventy
Dm                G
So many stories I still need to tell
Dm                G
So many memories to share as well
C                  CMaj7
There you are just look at you
C7                 F
Hey you're getting older too
Dm                    G
Do you still want to be that girl
Dm                     G
do you still want to change the world .

[Verse 2]
C                        CMaj7
Remember when we thought we could
C7                       F
And how no one really understood
Dm                     G
Said we were much too young to fall in love
Dm                     G
They said that love wouldn't be enough
C                     CMaj7
Now they sing a different song
C7                    F
Together we proved them wrong
Dm                       G
There've been tears and we had our fears
Dm                              G
But we made it through the turbulent years

[Chorus]
Em            Am     Em            Am    C              G             F
Once a young love  but now an old love, it will never ever be a cold love

[Verse 2]
C                   CMaj7
You have lines upon your face
C7                 F
Not one of them looks out of place
Dm                      G
They tell a story like words on a page
Dm                    G
recognition that you earn with age
C                     CMaj7
And look at me losing my hair
C7                           F
There comes a time when you don't really care
Dm                     G
Together we have come so far
Dm                     G
It's not surprising now we show the scars

[Chorus]
Em           Am     Em            Am        C          G             F
Once a young love  but now an old love, it will never ever be a cold love.

[Verse 3]
C                  CMaj7
So here we are, you and I
C7                    F
Both knowing our love will never  die
Dm                      G
The love we have will carry on
Dm                 G
And it will be forever young
Em          Am    Em        Am
This young love, now an old love
C               G               F
Still will never ever be a cold love,

[Outro]

Em       Am       Em       Am
My young love, and my old love,
C                G               F
You will always  be my one true love.
