VERSE ONE 
 

C                                                        G7 
Now you might think that thirty five is just a little too old 
                                           C 
But I'm not ready yet to be put out in the cold 
                                                       G7 
I've got plenty of good love left....woman if you just use it 
                                                C 
You know the older the violin, the sweeter the music 
 
BRIDGE 
 

C                        G7 
And I can play...a sympho-ny of love 
                                     C 
like a thousand violins singin' from above 
                                                      G7 
You're gonna really miss my lovin'...someday when you lose it

You know the older the violin, the sweeter the music

These specks of grey that's in my hair...just make me look dis-tinguished 
                                                        C 
They don't mean I'm over the hill...and Babe I'm not ex-tinguished 
                                                                      G7 
There's lots of young girls waitin' for my love.and Babe they won't re-fuse it

They know the older the violin, the sweeter the music.
