[Verse 1]
Help the aGged, one time they were Cjust like you
Cmdrinking, smoking cigs and sGniffing glue
Help the aGged, don't just put them Cin a home
CmCan't have much fun when they're all Gon their own
Give a Chand, if you can, try and Ghelp them to unwind
Give them Chope and give them comfort, 'cause they're Grunning out of time
[Chorus 1]
 GIn the meantime we try, Btry to forget that nothing lasts forever
CNo big deal so give us Dall a feel, Cmfunny how it all falls aGway
 GWhen did you first realise? BIt's time you took an older lover baby
CTeach you stuff although he's Dlooking rough, Cmfunny how it all falls aGway
[Verse 2]
Help the Gaged, 'cause one day you'll be Colder too
CmYou might need someone who can Gpull you through
And if you Clook very hard, behind those Glines upon their face
You may Csee where you are headed, and it's Gsuch a lonely place
[Chorus 2]
 GIn the meantime we try, Btry to forget that nothing lasts forever
CNo big deal so give us Dall a feel, Cmfunny how it all falls aGway
 GWhen did you first realise? BIt's time you took an older lover baby
CTeach you stuff although he's Dlooking rough, Cmfunny how it all falls aGway
