and [C] Many an [Em] hour of sweet [Am*] hap [G*] pi [C*] ness
Have I [Dm] spent in that [G7] neat little [C] town.
'Till a sad misfortune came o'er me, and caused me to stray from the [G] land.
Far a [C] way from [Em] my friends and re-[Am*] la-[G*]-a-[C*]-tions,

And her [C] hair hung [Em] over her [Am*] sho-[G*]-oul-[C*]-der,
Tied [Dm] up with a [G7] black velvet [C] band.
I [C] took a stroll down Broadway, meaning not long for to [G] stay,
When [C] who should I [Em] meet but this [Am*] pretty [G*] fair [C*] maid,
Come a [Dm] traipsing a-[G7]long the high-[C]way.

Well, I [C] knew she [Em] meant the [Am*] doing [G*] of [C*] him,
By the [Dm] look in her [G7] roguish black [C] eye.
A gold watch she took from his pocket, and placed it right into my [G] hand,
And the [C] very first [Em] thing that I [Am*] sa-[G*]-id [C*] was
"Bad [Dm] ‘cess to the [G7] black velvet [C] band".

And her [C] hair hung [Em] over her [Am*] sho-[G*]-oul-[C*]-der,
Tied [Dm] up with a [G7] black velvet [C] band.
Be[C]fore the judge and the jury, next morning I had to ap-[G]pear.
And the [C] judge he [Em] says to [Am*] me, [G*] "Young [C*] Man,
The [Dm] case against you is [G7] proving [C] clear.
We’ll give you seven years penal servitude, to be spent far away from this [G] land,
Far a-[C]way from your [Em] friends and com-[Am*] pa-[G*]-ni-[C*]-ons,,

For they will fill you with strong drink, me lads, ‘Till you’re unable to[G] stand
And the [C] very last thing [Em] that you will [Am*]kn [G]ow is
You’re [Dm] landed in [G7] van-demons [C] land
Her [C] eyes they shone like diamonds, I thought her the queen of the [G] land,
And her [C] hair hung [Em] over her [Am*] sho-[G*]-oul-[C*]-der,

Something [C]different... all the girls they seem to [Bb]like you
Cause you're [Dm]handsome... like to talk and have a whole lot of [C]fun
But now your [Dm]girl's gone a-[F]missin'

[C] [Bb] [Dm] [C]
It's a [C]struggle... livin' like a good boy [Bb]oughta
In the [Dm]summer... watching all the girls pass [C]by
When your [C]mama... heard the way that you'd been [Bb]talkin'
And tried to [Dm]tell you... that all she wants to do is [C]cry
Now we [Dm]end up taking the [F]long way home
[G7]Looking overdressed wearing [G]buckets of stale [C]cologne [C]
So [Dm]hard to see streets on a [F]country road
When your [G7]glass is in the garbage
And your [G]Continental's just been [C]towed [C]

[Verse 1]
[C] When I get older losing my hair, many years from [G] now
Will you still be sending me a valentine, Birthday greetings [C] bottle of wine?
If I'd been out till quarter to three, [C7] Would you lock the [F] door
Will you still [Fm] need me, [C] will you still [A7] feed me,
[D] When I'm [G] sixty-[C]four?
Bridge:
[Am] La la la la la ..... [G] la la la .....,
[Am]mmm, You'll be older [E7] too
[Am] (ah ah ah ah), and if you [Dm] say the word
[F] I could [G] stay with [C] you [G7]
[Verse 2]
[C] I could be handy mending a fuse, when your lights have [G] gone
You can knit a sweater by the fireside, Sunday mornings [C] go for a ride
Doing the garden, digging the weeds, [C7] Who could ask for [F] more?
[F] Will you still [Fm] need me, [C] will you still [A7] feed me,
[D] When I'm [G] sixty-[C]four?
Bridge:
[Am] Every summer we can rent a cottage,
In the Isle of [G] Wight, if it's not too [Am] dear
We shall scrimp and [E7] save,
[Am] our grandchildren [Dm] on your knee,
[F] Vera, [G] Chuck, and [C] Dave [G7]
[Verse 3]
[C] Send me a postcard, drop me a line, stating point of [G] view
Indicate precisely what you mean to say, Yours sincerely, [C] Wasting Away
Give me your answer, fill in a form, [C7] mine for ever[F] more
[F] Will you still [Fm] need me, [C] will you still [A7] feed me,
[D] When I'm [G] sixty-[C]four?
[Outro]
[F] Will you still [Fm] need me, [C] will you still [A7] feed me,
[D] When I'm [G] sixty-[C]four? [G*][C*]

Intro:
[D] [D] [D] [D]
Verse 1:
[D] Friday night I crashed your party, Saturday I said I'm sorry
Sunday came and trashed me out a-[A]gain
I was [Em] only having fun, wasn't [C] hurting anyone
And we [A] all enjoyed the weekend for a [D] change

[D] I've been stranded in the combat zone,
I walked through Bedford Stuy alone
Even rode my motorcycle in the [A] rain

So you [A] said that only proves that I'm in-[D]sane [Stop]
|[Chorus]
|You may be [A] right, I may be [D] crazy
|(Hey) But it [A] just may be a [G] lunatic you're [Bm] looking for [D] [Stop]
|Turn out the [A] light, don't try to [D] save me
|You may be [G] wrong for all I [A] know but you may be [D] right
Verse 3:
[D] Remember how I found you there, alone in your electric chair
I told you dirty jokes until you [A] smiled
You were [Em] lonely for a man, I said [C] take me as I am
Cause you [A] might enjoy some madness for a [D] while
Verse 4:
[D] Now think of all the years you tried to, find someone to satisfy you
I might be as crazy as you [A] say
If I'm [Em] crazy then it's true, that it's [C] all because of you
And you [A] wouldn't want me any other [D] way [Stop]

|You may be [A] right, I may be [D] crazy
|(Hey) But it [A] just may be a [G] lunatic you're [Bm] looking for [D] [Stop]
