A Woman Half My Age

Kitty Wells


Tom: G

G
You say I've lost you to a woman half my age

   D7                                   G
A lovely young acquaintance that you've made

G                        G7          C
You say your love for me you've laid aside

    G               D7                     G
And she's rekindled flames you thought had died

 
C                                     G
But if your love affair with her goes wrong
 
    A7                               D7
And if you miss the love you left at home

G                                 G7        C
Come back and we'll tear out this tarnished page

    G                 D7            G
And we'll forget that woman half my age

 
G
The lines that time has etched upon my brow 

  D7                             G
A face grown too familiar to you now

G                            G7       C
The look that often took the place of words 

   G             D7                  G
You're replacing now with looks from her

 
C                                     G
But if your love affair with her goes wrong
 
    A7                               D7
And if you miss the love you left at home

G                                 G7        C
Come back and we'll tear out this tarnished page


    G                 D7            G
And we'll forget that woman half my age
