I Knew This Day Would Come

                 D                                    G
He'd just turned forty-seven when she was only twenty-two
                         A                                   D
She'd turned his life to heaven from the hell that he'd been through
                             D                            G
All her friends said she was crazy she must have lost her mind
                      A                               D
She said age makes no difference and it didn't at the time

                              D                            G
Through the years she was his comfort, oh but anyone could see
                    A                         D
That he was growing older and she was growing free
                     D                                G
She came in late one morning he said hold me one last time
                           A                           D
You don't need to say it's over, I've known it all the time

                      D                               G
I knew this day would come oh but we sure gave love a whirl
                         D                                          A
Now the age that made no difference makes all the difference in the world
                          D                           G
But I can't hold back the seasons, I curse the rising sun
                    D                                  D
I already know your reasons, for I knew this day would come

B

                   E                           A
She said I found a young man he's only half my age
                     B                               E
He says age makes no difference, it's the heart that sets the stage
                     E                                   A
The old man listened quietly then he said "You know, someday,"
                        B                                 E
"He'll come in late one morning and it'll be your time to say:"

   E                        B
"I knew this day would come,
                       E
"I knew this day would come"
