    G                                                             C
I like to watch my darling, she's beautiful, you see,
D                                                  G
Looking better all the years she's been so good to me.
						  C
Though spirit may be willing to always do its all,
    D                       C         D      G
The juice of the barley can sometimes louder call.

	Middle Ages, Middle Ages,
	    D                              G
	You know you've reached the middle ages
	         C                            G
	When you find it true that what you'd rather do
	             C    D    G
	Is have more beer than sex!

I love to visit parties, and though I'll never cheat
Those hot cookie tarts are quite the eyeball treat.
But more and more I'm finding what I swivel eyes to see
Are the honey brown jugs of Jay-Double-You-Dundee! 

	Middle Ages, Middle Ages,
	You know you've reached the middle ages
	When you find it true that what you'd rather do
	Is have more beer than sex!

		   Am                    D
		My love has a hobby, she knows just what to do,
		  Am                         D
		A precious little smile will light her face like new,
		       Am                  D
		She'll lean to my ear, and in it whisper true,
		C                    G        D7
		"Honey, to-night why don't we brew?" 

	Middle Ages, Middle Ages,
	You know you've reached the middle ages
	When you find it true that what you'd rather do
	Is have more beer than sex!
