The world's re arrangin'

Hemlines are shorter

A beer costs a quarter
    E6                               C#m7    Cm7   
But time cannot take what comes free

Some folks can't stand it

Say time is a bandit
    F#m7                   F#m7
But i take the opposite view
           Ebm7(b5)
Cause when i need a lift
   Ab7
Time brings a gift
  C#m7  Cm7        Bm7   E7    E9   
Another day with you

A twist or a waltz
     A#dim7
It's all the same schmaltz
            E6/B          Ebaug   D9(#11)   C#7   
With just a change in the scenery
             F#m7  
You'll never be old hat

That's that!

Mine feels like barbed wire
    C6                          Am7    Abm7

So pour me a teeny weenie triple
C#m7  Dm7                    Ab9(#5)    G9    G13(b9)   
And we can toast the fact we ain't dead yet!
C6/9
I can't stop eating
     G#7/D#
Your hairline's receding
Dm7
Soon there'll be nothing at all
    Bm7(b5)

      E7(b9)
While i roast a pig
     Am7       Abm7   Gm7Gm11   C13

            F#dim7
That Chubby Checker's a gas
