When I'm Gray
R. Scott, H. Sanders / Johnny Cash: Legend (2005)

| 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 a | way, |
| 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? |
