lyrics

SALT AND PEPPER DAYS

G C G C
His long dark hair still shakes when he sings
G D G/C G
But his hairline is receding much too far.
Em D G C
His songs are getting better with a truer ring
G D G/C G
than when he first picked up that guitar.

C Cm
His voice has gone to gravel and sand.
G G/F# Em Em7
His prayers sound like a rock and roll band.
A A7
Why’s he in that back corner, wearing shades?
D G D
He’s just into his Salt and Pepper Days.
C D G/C G
He’s just into his Salt and Pepper Days.


She stands before a rack with 20 shades of hair.
Picks up some Oil of Olay.
She tosses it back. Finds a dark sunglass pair
and heads for the counter to pay.
refrain

I guess we should be running things now instead of carrying signs.
Just give us armchairs and mobile phones.
We’ll solve the next crisis cause all you need is love
and time to drag out that old saxaphone.
refrain
Em F
He’s graying at the temples but not down in his soul.
D7 C2 D
He’s got his act together but his waistline’s past control.
refrain (So if your...)(You might be...)
