When I'm Gray

R. Scott, H. Sanders / Johnny Cash: Legend (2005)

A E A D A
A D A
When a rocking chair is all that move's me
D E
And a walking cane is all I want to lean on;
A D A F#m
When the kids are grown and on their own and blackbird's have flown away,
A E A D A
Will you still love me when I'm gray?
 
When conversation's down to the weather 
And the running of the mail is a real big deal; 
When "I Love You" slips my mind at least every other day - 
Will you still love me when I'm gray? 
 
When I look at you I know I'll always love you, 
Though the year's may make my memories fade at times. 
When my body's broken down, can I count on you to stay? 
Will you still love me when I'm gray? 
 
When the thought of a cup of coffee in the morning 
Does strange things to my body and my mind; 
And all my arms can reach for is the place where my pills lay, 
Will you still love me when I'm gray? 
 
When I look at you I know I'll always love you. 
Though the years may make my memories fade at times. 
When my body's broken down, can I count on you to stay? 
Will you still love me when I'm gray? 
Will you still love me when I'm gray?
