[Verse 1]
D Gm Gm
"Women peak at 40, and men at 19"
D
I remember laughing my head off
A
When I read that in a magazine (I was 20 at the time)
D G
Now I'm staring 40 right in the face
D A
And the only trouble with being a woman my age,
D
Is the men my age
[Chorus]
G Dm
That's why younger men are starting to catch my eye
G
I'm starting to stop what I'm doing
A
Just to turn around and watch them walk by
D Dm
At the very next opportunity
G
I'm gonna give a younger man a try
D A D
Because younger men are starting to catch my eye
[Verse 2]
Dm
Ma ma ma men my age, poor old darlings,
G G
They're worried and they're hairy
Dm
Some of them drink too much,
A
Whole lot of them are married
D G
And honey here I'm at on the threshold of all that fun
Dm A D
I'm gonna try my best to cross it with a younger one
[Chorus]
G Dm
Oh, I said that younger men are starting to catch my eye
G
I'm starting to stop what I'm doing
A Am
Just to turn around and watch them walk by-y-y-y-y
D Dm
At the very next opportunity
G
I'm gonna give a younger man a try
D A D D
Because younger men are starting to catch my eye
[Solo]

Woah, look over here

We got a cute little ol' runner to the right
D
Blue shorts, no shirt
A
Whoo! You're looking good darling
A
That's right, stay in shape
D
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
G
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
D A D
Oh those are younger men startin to catch my eye

Oh, I said that younger men are starting to catch my eye
