Lady so black 
     Em           A
Like a million cemetery lawns 
D         Bm
I don't even try anymore 
Em            A
Keeping up with the headstones 
D                Bm       Em
Maybe I've been waiting too long, too long 
  A      A7         Bm
For somebody to throw my kinda party 
   Em          A
And I know, I'm too old 

D     Bm
Stadiums cry 
             Em            A
Go on wait until your band gets back together 
D                     Bm                  Em           A
Don't you think it's probably time you sit and write your fans an apology letter 
D                Bm        Em
Maybe you've been waiting too long, too long 
  A      A7          Bm
For somebody to throw your kinda party 
      Em           A       D
And you're old, you're too old

You're never gonna get one 

D       Bm                   Em          A
Lovers they try, they try to whip the stars into compliance 
D                  Bm
Careful, don't you pull too hard 
        Em                 A
Don't want to knock the planets out of alignment 
D                Bm        Em
Maybe you've been waiting too long, too long 
  A      A7       Bm
For somebody to show to the party 
      Em           A      Bm
And you're old, you're too old
