Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Introduction

Verse 1

Pepper your paper with spelling mistakes

Befriend the popular and piss-rip the geeks

Catwalk your blue shoes for attention's sake

Sniff up the glue pots and put on the shakes

Introduction x2

Verse 2

Line up the punch lines till the class cracks up

You keep your head low, till the pressure's stopped

Pull all the stops out for future 'Wife of the Month'

Promise to hold her through blindness and health (and we’ll sing)

Chorus

Grow old with me (we'll share the pitfalls)

We'll fill the sea (answer the cat calls)

We'll watch the world (fall from the inside)

We'll watch the world (fall from the inside)

Introduction x2

Flute solo

Bridge

How long will this last?

How long will this last?

How long will this last; these, the barren years?

Promise to hold her through these barren years

Grow old with me (we'll share the pitfalls)

We'll fill the sea (answer the cat calls)

We'll watch the world (fall from the inside)

We'll watch the world (fall from the inside)

Grow old with me (we'll share the pitfalls)

We'll fill the sea (answer the cat calls)

We'll watch the world (fall from the inside)

We'll watch the world (fall from the inside)

Grow old with me (we'll share the pitfalls)

We'll fill the sea (answer the cat calls)

We'll watch the world (fall from the inside)

We'll watch the world (fall from the inside)
