My Get Up And Go Cifras

[Chorus]
F                C
How do I know my youth is all spent?
     G                          C
My get up and go has got up and went
     F                       C
But in spite of it all, I'm able to grin
     G                                 C
And think of the places my get-up has been
 
[Verse]
 C                  F                 G
Old age is golden, so I've heard it said
                              C
But sometimes I wonder as I crawl into bed
         F                    C
With my ears in a drawer, my teeth in a cup
    D                  G
My eyes on the table until I wake up
 
      C                    F       G
As sleep dims my vision, I say to myself
                                 C
Is there anything else I should lay on the shelf?
              F                     C
But though nations are warring and business is vexed
       G                                      C
I'll still stick around to see what happens next
 
[Chorus]
F                C
How do I know my youth is all spent?
     G                          C
My get up and go has got up and went
     F                       C
But in spite of it all, I'm able to grin
     G                                 C
And think of the places my get-up has been
 
[Verse]
 C                       F            C
When I was younger, my slippers were red
                                 C
I could kick up my heels right over my head
 F                   C
When I was older my slippers were blue
     D                       G
But still, I could dance the whole night thru
 
 C                  F          G
Now I am old, my slippers are black
                           C
I huff to the store and I puff my way back
F                        C
But never you laugh, I don't mind at all
 G                                     C
I'd rather be huffing than not puff at all
 
[Chorus]
F                C
How do I know my youth is all spent?
     G                          C
My get up and go has got up and went
     F                       C
But in spite of it all, I'm able to grin
     G                                 C
And think of the places my get-up has been
 
[Verse]
    C                       F         G
I get up each morning and dust off my wits
                      C
Open the paper and read the obits
F                    C
If I'm not there, I know I'm not dead
      G                                   C
So I eat a good breakfast and go back to bed
 
[Chorus]
F                C
How do I know my youth is all spent?
     G                          C
My get up and go has got up and went
     F                       C
But in spite of it all, I'm able to grin
     G                                 C
And think of the places my get-up has been
