I don't have the time right now (sorry :-( to post the entire song but I'll

put a little bit that should help you get started. It has been a while

since I played this but here goes:

Sixty Years On----Words and Music by Elton John and Bernie Taupin

[Am] Who'll walk me [G] down to church when I'm [F] sixty years of age

[Am] when the [Dm] ragged dog they gave me has been [E] ten years in the

grave And [Am] senorita [G] play gutiar [F] play it just for [Am] my [Dm]

rosary has broken and my [E] beads have all slipped [Am] through [G/A]

[D] [C] [Am]

then repeat to verse 2:

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 [Am] on.

[G/A] [D/A] [C/A] [Am] [D] [C] [Am]

then ds to verse 3:

Yes I'll sit with you and talk, let your eyes relive again, I know your

vintage prayers will be very much the same. And Magdelena plays the organ,

plays it just for you, your choral lamp that burns so low when you are

passing [E] through [Am] and the future your're [G] giving me holds [F]

nothing for a gun [Am] I've [Dm] no wish to be living [E sus4] Sixty Years

[Am] on [G] [D] [C] [Am] repeat ending and fade.

So, I think I got most of it. Glad I read your post. I had forgotten how

much I liked this song.

Thanks,

Ben
