Bm              A                      G              Bm
Who'll walk me down to church when I'm sixty years of age
         Em                                F#7
When the ragged dog they gave me has been ten years in the grave
Bm                  A       G                Bm
And Señorita plays guitar, plays it just for you
    Em                        F#
My rosary has broken and my beads have all slipped through
 
[Verse]
Bm              A                   G                     Bm
You've hung up your great coat and you've laid down your gun
      Em                        F#
You know the war you fought in wasn't too much fun
Bm              A                      G              Bm
And the future you're giving me holds nothing for a gun
      Em                        F#7
I've no wish to be living sixty years on
 
[Solo]
Bm A G Bm
Bm A E D Bm
 
[Verse]
Bm                A                     G             Bm
Yes I'll sit with you and talk let your eyes relive again
Em                                   F#7
I know my vintage prayers would be very much the same
   Bm          A                 G               Bm
And Magdelena plays the organ, plays it just for you
   Em                                      F#7
Your choral lamp that burns so low when you are passing through
 Bm                    A                G
And the future you're giving me holds nothing for a gun
Em                         F#7          Bm             Bm A E D Bm
I've no wish to be living sixty years on

I also forgot to mention with this song, when you do it in Am you have to have a capo on the 2nd fret otherwise don't use this key.Believe me.

In the 1st verse, last line, "and my beads have all slipped through" It changes to Bm on the word THROUGH then stays on Bm to A to G then back to Bm to start the 2nd verse, otherwise it's a good tab.
