[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
I had a bad [G]night
i mean not [C]so bad i thought i
[G]was king of the world
and i drank till daylight
i mean i never [C]stopped [G]once til
my hands finally fell
and i fought my daytime [Bm]self
[G]with a mighty [A]dose [C]of hey
look at the [G]night time me
i never do win [Bm]that battle[G]
[A]but i fight [G]it over [A]and over
and over and [G]over it seems

[Verse 2]
and [G]i saw an old man
[C]smilin' on [G]a park bench
feedin' the pigeon's
my head was spinnin'
as my young body [C]ached [G]i wished
for an old man's vision
and i watched [Bm]the way he moved
so [D]slow, [A]se rene,
and lucky [C]to be [G]alive
and i thought to myself i'm never
gon[Bm]na make [G]it that far
[Em]too [A]many nights [G]like last night

[Verse 3]
[G]I'd rather [C]be 75 and sunny
[G]and acting[C] like I'm[G]
17 and freezing again
I'd rather be up [Bm]early in the morning
[G]than up late at [D]night again eras
[G]in' memory's of where [Bm]I've been[G]
or to be through [C]at 52 someday
[G]stone faced and leery eyed
you better believe [C]i'm lookin
for the mo[G]ment
but [Bm]my moment's growin'
bigger [G]by and by
and i've got a best [C]friend

[Verse 4]
she dont drink or smoke [G]like
I've been known too
shes got a religion
shes a one [C]wo men dynamo and shinin'
[G]light in every room she goes too
she says [Bm]the light thats there
[G]wont go [A]nowhere no[G]way
she dont spend [Bm]every second smilin'
but she's learnin' [A]something
exciting [G]everyday
she'd rather [C]be 75 and sunny

[Verse 5]
[G]
[C]than 29 with a chance of shower
[G]s all the time
she'd rather be [Bm]old [Em]as dirt and new
as [G]any 9 dollar bottle of wine
or to be [C]through at 35 momma [G]stoned
with her back to the win
you better believe [C]she's looking
for the mo[G]ment
but her moment is the hold damn thing
i see these spin [A]kids

[Verse 6]
double wide eye'd and rollin' and rollin'
and tumblin'
there rollin' in inches
taken [D]the high dive approach [A]and screamin'
towards the water
there hearts race a million miles
[A]as the[Bm]y buy another smile
from [D]a jar[A]
there bodies are scream
[G]in' for the water
[Bm]you know i just hope
they make it [A]that far
i hope [D]they're

[Verse 7]
75 and sunny
[G]not [D]29 with a chance flurries
all [G]the time[A]
i hope we're all [Bm]old as dirt
and not new [Em]as a[A]ny
25 dollar ride that we can try
or to be [D]through [G]35 momma stoned w[Em]ith
[E]our backs to [G]the wind[A]
you better [D]believe i'm lookin
for the moment
[A]but my moment sums up the
[G]hole damn [A]thing
and i say [C]I'd rather

[Verse 8]
be 75
oh how nice, how easy for me to [G]say
I've never [C]broken a bone in my life
let alone had my heart [G]or
a hip replaced
and i keep this furi[C]ous [G]pace
and i [C]still feel so good and strong
and i do get temp[G]ted for a taste,
just a taste
to keep [C]me going,[G][A][D][C]
[Bm]goin[A]g,going, going, gone[D]
[C]

[Verse 9]
[G]But I got a notion
[C]that everything I've learned
[G]will come around
in my devotion to the new thing
and the [C]next thing and [G]the hip
thing is slowin' down
and i got [Bm]a life in here [G]wont go
[C]nowhere no[G]way
and i don't spend every [Bm]second smilin'
and i [G]ain't tryin' [Am]but I'm
[A]excited [G]for today
cause I'd rather [C]be [G]75 and sunny

[Verse 10]
than [C]29 with a chance of shower
[G]s all the time
I'd rather be older than the wind
[A]then this years new [G]kid runnin' for my life
or to be through [C]at 52 someday,
[G]stoned faced and leery eyed
you better believe i'm lookin
for the moment but my moment
you better believe [C]i'm lookin
for the moment but my mo[G]ment
you better believe [C]i'm lookin
for the moment
but [G]my moments growin'
bigger [C]by [G]and by by and by
