C Am
He kept a drawer of old ink pens, Watches ticking soft and slow.
G C
Told the same old jokes for decades, And somehow they still stole the show.
C Am
He was friendly as a sailor waving from his boat, But kept his feelings deep inside.

A man who lived in a quiet honor, And a steady, humble pride.

Am C
Now the house feels kinda empty, Though his pictures line the wall.

Sixty years she stood beside him, Through his rise and through his fall.

Dementia stole his memories, But his love kept holding strong.
G C
He left this world still reaching for her, Sixty years of loving her.

C Am
He loved the feel of open water, Let the breeze decide the day.
G C
Sailing slow across the shoreline, That was where hed drift away.
C Am
He said a boats a lot like living, You just ride the winds that youre given.
G C
And even when the storms rolled in, He always found his way back home.

C Am
Hed hum those corny old love songs, Offkey but sweet and true.
G C
Never said much how he felt, But he showed it in what hed do.
C Am
From fixing up the Sunday porch, To warming up her hands at night,
G C
He spoke in little acts of love, More than words could ever write.

Am G
Some days he knew her name, Some days he drifted far.
Em G
But she held his hand and whispered, Im right here, wherever you are.
[Refrão]
Am C
Now she sits out on the front porch, Watching sunsets he adored.
G C
She still hears him in the wind chimes, Still feels him by the door.
Am C
He may have lost his memories, But his love lives on and on.
G C
A man of pens and watches, jokes and honor, Sixty years of loving her.
