From: Barrie McCombs
FORTY-FIVE YEARS Time: 2/2 (sync) Tenor: Bb Bass: Bb
- Stan Rogers, 1976, on: Fogarty's Cove
INTRO: 1, 2m, 5, 1
1 *
Where the earth shows it's bones of wind-broken stone
5 *
And the sea and the sky are one
2m 4
I'm caught out of time, my blood sings with wine
5 *
And I'm running naked in the sun
1 *
There's God in the trees, I'm weak in the knees
5 *
And the sky is a painful blue
2m 4 5 1 ( 4, 1, 5 )
I'd like to look around, but Honey, all I see is you
1 *
The summer city lights will soften the night
5 *
Till you'd think that the air is clear
2m 4
And I'm sitting with friends where forty-five cents
5 *
Will buy another glass of beer
1 *
He's got something to say, but I'm so far away
5 *
That I don't know who I'm talking to
2m 4 5 1
Cause you just walked in the door, and Honey, all I see is you
CHORUS (after verses 2 and 3):
4 *
And I just want to hold you closer
1 4 1
Than I've ever held any-one be-fore
4 1
You say you've been twice a wife and you're through with life
2m 5
Ah but Honey, what the hell's it for
4 *
After twenty-three years you'd think I could find
1 4 1
A way to let you know some-how
2m 2m/1 5 1 (*)
That I want to see your smiling face forty-five years from now

FORTY-FIVE YEARS PAGE TWO
1 *
So a-lone in the lights on stage every night
5 *
I've been reaching out to find a friend
2m 4
Who knows all the words, sings so she's heard
5 *
And knows how all the stories end
1 *
Maybe after the show she'll ask me to go
5 *
Home with her for a drink or two
2m 4 5 1
Now her smile lights her eyes, but Honey all I see is you
CHORUS:
4 *
And I just want to hold you closer
1 4 1
Than I've ever held any-one be-fore
4 1
You say you've been twice a wife and you're through with life
2m 5
Ah but Honey, what the hell's it for
4 *
After twenty-three years you'd think I could find
1 4 1
A way to let you know some-how
2m 2m/1 5 1 (*)
That I want to see your smiling face forty-five years from now
