A song written to the challenge 'Write something in swing or shuffle style'. The theme is about aging. The initial chord progression F - Bm - E7 - Am whas inspired by a songwriting tip (from analysis of The Beatles 'Yesterday') to move from a diatonic root chord, to borrowed chord, then resolve to a minor chord associated with the diatonic. The F - Bm move at first sounds jarring but becomes familiar over time (no pun intended).
