G C
Help the aged, one time they were just like you
Cm G
drinking, smoking cigs and sniffing glue
G C
Help the aged, don't just put them in a home
Cm G
Can't have much fun when they're all on their own
C G
Give a hand, if you can, try and help them to unwind

Give them hope and give them comfort, 'cause they're running out of time
Chorus 1:
G B
In the meantime we try, try to forget that nothing lasts forever
C D Cm G
No big deal so give us all a feel, funny how it all falls away
G B
When did you first realise? It's time you took an older lover baby
C D Cm G
Teach you stuff although he's looking rough, funny how it all falls away
Verse 2:
G C
Help the aged, 'cause one day you'll be older too
Cm G
You might need someone who can pull you through
