Lady so black 
               Em       A 
Like a million cemetery lawns 
D            Bm 
I don't even try anymore 
Em                  A 
Keeping up with the headstones 
D                           Bm        Em 
Maybe I've been waiting too long, too long 
    A           A7             Bm 
For somebody to throw my kinda party 
      Em            A 
And I know, I'm too old 


D        Bm 
Stadiums cry 
                      Em               A 
Go on wait until your band gets back together 
D                             Bm                          Em   
            A 
Don't you think it's probably time you sit and write your fans an apology letter 
D                             Bm        Em 
Maybe you've been waiting too long, too long 
    A           A7               Bm 
For somebody to throw your kinda party 
           Em              A         Bm 
And you're old, you're too old
