[Verse 1]
[Em]Old enough to be her dad
But the young men were [D]just mad
they nursed their [C]grievances[Em]
And she was [Am]flattered by his [Bsus4]charm
[B]It wouldn't [Am]do her any h[G]arm
they all had [Bsus4]their cha[B]nces
He [Baug]sen t her flowers

[Verse 2]
[Em]and limousines
She was treated like a queen
[D]Any[C]thing she ever wanted
It was no problem for a
man [Em]like him
And every[Am]one expected soon
That she could ask him for [G]the moon if
she would [Bsus4]wear his ring[B]

[Verse 3]
Knowing [Em]glances from his friends
In the homes at the week
[D]ends of high [C]society[Em]
But he [Am]didn't give a damn
He never felt more like a man
[G]And all the tim[Bsus4]e the clock
[B]was ticking

[Verse 4]
And all would [C]envy
[B]The older man and his
[Em]beautiful young [F#dim]wife[Em]

[Verse 5]
[Em]
In a house upon a hill
She was there with time to kill
[D]She lived a life she[C]'d only dre[D]amed
[C]The life was never what it [B]seemed
[Em]To all her f[Am]riends that she'd ignored
She denied that she was bored
[G]She had[Em] no tim[Bsus4]e for dancing
- no [B]time for dancing
[Baug]But the

[Verse 6]
[Em]clock upon the wall
That was ticking in the [D]hall
always [C]reminded her
[Em]That life was [Am]going on elsewhere
But she was happy and she [G]whould swear
she [Am]wouldn't [B]change [Bsus4]a thing[B]
And [D]all

[Verse 7]
[Am]would [C]envy
[B]The older man and his bea[Em]utiful young wife
[D]Yes all would env[C]y

She must have spent the night again
[G]with tha[C]t old friend of [F]hers
She loves to [G]dance

[Verse 9]
She's missing [Am]more and more these days
But he's still stuck in his old ways

[Dm]But [G]the clock up[Am]on the
wall is still ticking in the hall
[G]She must be hom[B]e soon - soon

Where a [C]younger man would weep
He takes [B]a pill and goes [Em]to sleep
