BmA/BAsus4/BE/BD/BBm
BmWho'll walk me Adown to church when I'm Gsixty years ofBm/F# age
When the Emragged dog they gave me has been F#sus4ten years in the F#grave
BmAnd señorita Aplay guitar,G play it just for Bm7/F#you
My Emrosary has broken and my F#sus4beads have all slippedBm through
A/BAsus4/BE/BD/BBm
You've hung up your great coat and you've laid down your gun
You know the war you fought in wasn't too much fun
And the future you're giving me holds nothing for a gun
I've no wish to be living sixty years on
A/BAsus4/BE/BD/BBm
A/BAsus4/BE/BD/BBm
A/BAsus4/BE/BD/BBm
A/BAsus4/BE/BD/BBm
Yes I'll sit with you and talk let your eyes relive again
I know my vintage prayers would be very much the same
And Magdalena plays the organ, plays it just for you
Your choral lamp that burns so low when you are passing through
BmAnd the future you're Agiving me holds Gnothing for a Bm/F#gun
EmI've no wish to be livingF#sus4 sixty F#yearsBm on

THANK YOU !! Most sites have this song starting in Am and working from there. You are among very few who even have the song in the right key. Bless you.
