Verse
(tacet)
Many years have passed, it seems
(tacet)
And I am all alone
(tacet)
I've sent the children far away
(tacet)
To some obscure unknown
(tacet)
It's so sad, so sad
[Chorus]
G# C#
Close another door
G# C# D#
Listen to my eyes
G# C#
Close another door
G# C#
You're much too old to work
D# D#
So won't you run away? (break)
[Verse]

When I was young, I used to say
C# D#
That age won't bother me

It all went out to sea
A#m D# D#
It's so sad, so sad (break)

Close another door

Close another door

You're much too old to work

So won't you run away? (break)
[Verse]
G#
Though the sun is in outside
C# D#
The rain is in my hair

Now all my life is lived inside
C# D#
My home is in my chair
A#m D# D#
It's so sad, so sad (break)

[Outro]
G# G#7
Let me go
C# F#7
Send me flowers and put me on a plane

I may be old but I've been told
C# D#
At least I'm still alive
G# G#7
Fly me up
C# F#7
Fly me up and send me home

I've been working so, so very hard and
C# D#
Being loved [?] but now I'm tired
