Lyrics

[Verse 1]
D              Dmaj7
 Looking around     me
D7           G D/F#
  I see a new      world
Em Em7              A
      I used to know
D             Dmaj7
 Life is a mystery
D7                  G      D/F#  Em
  Remember the trips to Bedruthan
Em7                      A
   It feels like days ago
 Cmaj7
Another grey hair
G
Gotta let it go

[Chorus]
D
Lately
                            F#aug
Look in the mirror it’s hazy
                         Emadd9
Who is that figure before      me
                          Cmaj7 G
He looks a bit like my old      man
    D
And maybe
                                     F#aug
I’ll play this song when I’m eighty
                          Emadd9
I’ll have a son and a family
                           Cmaj7 Em
He looks a bit like his old      man
      Cmaj7 G
My old      man

[Verse 2]
D                Dmaj7                      D7
 When I’m not around I’ll sing it to you
             G       D/F#  Em
Through your big car stereo
   Em7                    A
My great great great grandson
D                 Dmaj7                  D7
 Catching a flight     all over the globe
                      G      D/F#      Em
But this dressing room is all    I know
Em7                 A
   It’s all I know
 Cmaj7
Another grey hair
G
 And another show

[Chorus]
D
Lately
                            F#aug
Look in the mirror it’s hazy
                         Emadd9
Who is that figure before      me
                          Cmaj7 G
He looks a bit like my old      man
    D
And maybe
                                     F#aug
I’ll play this song when I’m eighty
                          Emadd9
I’ll have a son and a family
                           Cmaj7 Em
He looks a bit like his old      man
       Cmaj7 Em
His old      man
       Cmaj7 Em
His old      man
      Cmaj7 G
My old      man
