When It Comes My Turn Lyrics

This is a great, catchy folk song that I first heard last night on CBC
and I couldn't get it out of my head since. I went on Youtube today and
found a bunch of videos of David Myles performing this song live. I'll
be ordering his CD soon, but for now, this tab reflects live versions
I've seen on t.v. and youtube. I haven't heard the album version, so
please forgive any variations.
The song's very simple. Myles starts by playing an E chord, and hammering
on the G string and probably doing something on the B string? This is the
basic outline, sounds 100% correct to my ears.
Start on E
Im getting old but Im not old yet
Im already worried that I might forget
How to laugh, how to love
How to live, how to learn
I want to die with a smile when it comes my turn
I dont want to get weary, dont want to get bored
Dont want to get tired, walking down this road
Ive seen that happen so many times
I just want to believe that its still worth trying
But I know that its easier said than done
And I aint that different from anyone
I worry about my money, got bills that I cant pay
I swear Im more like my father everyday
Maybe Ill start bowling, maybe Ill play bridge
Maybe Ill join a band with my own grandkids
I dont care if it kills me Im gonna do what it takes
To keep some warmth in my heart and a smile on my face
End on E.
