Porter Wagoner - I knew this day would come

He'd just turned ^Dforty-seven when she was only twenty-^Gtwo She'd turned his life to ^Aheaven from the hell that he'd been ^Dthrough All her friends said she was ^Dcrazy she must have lost her ^Gmind She said age makes no ^Adifference and it didn't at the ^Dtime

Through the years she was his ^Dcomfort, oh but anyone could ^Gsee That he was growing ^Aolder and she was growing ^Dfree She came in late one ^Dmorning he said hold me one last ^Gtime You don't need to say it's ^Aover, I've known it all the ^Dtime

I knew this day would ^Dcome oh but we sure gave love a ^Gwhirl Now the age that made no ^Ddifference makes all the difference in the ^Aworld But I can't hold back the ^Dseasons, I curse the rising ^Gsun I already know your ^Dreasons, for I knew this day would ^Dcome

She said I found a ^Eyoung man he's only half my ^Aage He says age makes no ^Bdifference, it's the heart that ^Esets the stage The old man listened ^Equietly then he said "You know, some^Aday," "He'll come in late one ^Bmorning and it'll be your time to ^Esay:"

"I ^Eknew this day would come,^B "I knew this day would ^Ecome"
