It's not [A] time to make a [Em] change just re[D]lax take it [Bm] easy
You're still [A] young that's your [F#m] fault
There's so [Bm] much you have to [E7] know
Find a [A] girl settle [Em] down if you [D] want you can [Bm] marry
Look at [A] me I am [F#m] old but I'm [Bm] happy [E7]
I was [A] once like you are [Em] now
And I [D] know that it's not [Bm7] easy
To be [A] calm when you've [F#m] found something going [Bm] on [E7]
But take your [A] time think a [Em] lot
Why think of [D] everything you've [Bm7] got
For you will [A] still be here to[F#m]morrow
