C5                                                        G5 
Now you might think that thirty five is just a little too old 
                                           C5 
But I'm not ready yet to be put out in the cold 
                                                       G5 
I've got plenty of good love left....woman if you just use it 
                                                C5 
You know the older the violin, the sweeter the music 
 
BRIDGE 
 

C5                        G5 
And I can play...a sympho-ny of love 
                                     C5 
like a thousand violins singin' from above 
                                                      G5 
You're gonna really miss my lovin'...someday when you lose it 
                                               C5 
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 
                                                        C5 
They don't mean I'm over the hill...and Babe I'm not ex-tinguished

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.
