He'd just turned forty-(D)-seven when she was only (G)twenty-two
She'd turned his life (A)to heaven from the hell that he'd been (D)through
All her friends said she was crazy she must have lost her (G)mind
She said age makes no (A) difference and it didn't at the (D)time
Through the years she was (D) his comfort oh but anyone could (G)see
That he was growing (A)older and she was growing (D) free
She came in late one morning he said hold me one last (G) time
You don't need to say it's (A)over I've known it all (D)the time
I knew this day would (D)come, oh, but we sure gave love a (G)whirl
Now the age that made no (D) difference makes all the difference in the (A)world
I can't hold back the (D)seasons I curse the rising (G)sun
I already know your (D)reasons (A) for I knew this day would (D)come (B)
She said I found a (E)young man, he's only half my (A)age
He says age makes no (B) difference it's the heart that (E)sets the stage

He'll come in late one (B) morning and it'll be your time (E) to say
