 A little polish  on these old  shoes
 Whose leather  time has abused
 A little polish  on these old  shoes
 Will make'em shine  like  brand  new
 In the attic,  in the half-light
 This old  suit don’t look so  well (Well, and it smells)
 On the collar  is a little  tear
 Man, the  stories this suit could  tell
 But if  you brush off the cobwebs
 This old  suit still looks  swell
 And it seems  like only yesterday
 When you walked  on down the aisle
 With your corsage  on your sweaty  palm
 Your face  in a feverish smile
 How I recall  those memories
 A little polish  on these cufflinks
 Yeah, they’re silver,  no, they ain’t gold  (No, they ain’t gold)
 An inscription  there in Latin
 Whose meaning  you never were  told
 But if you shine  up those cufflinks
 They never,  ever look  old
 And it seems  like only yesterday
 When you first  put on that suit
 With your  slicked-back hair, your  boutonniere
 Man, the  girls, they thought  you looked cute
 How I recall  those memories
 A little polish  on these old  shoes
 Whose leather  time has abused
 A little polish  on these old  shoes
 Will make'em shine  like  brand  new
 A little polish  is gonna make'em  shine
Like  brand new

A little [G]polish on these [Bm]old shoes
Whose [C]leather time has ab[D]used
A little [G]polish on these [Bm]old shoes
Will make'em sh[D]ine li[C]ke bra[G]nd new

In the a[G]ttic, in the h[Bm]alf-light
This [C]old suit don’t look s[G]o well (Well, and it smells)
On the [G]collar is a l[Bm]ittle tear
Man, t[Am7]he stories this suit c[D7]ould t[D]ell
But if[G] you brush off the c[Em]obwebs
This [C]old suit still l[D]ooks s[G]well

And it [Em]seems like only [Bm]yesterday
When you w[C]alked on down the [G]aisle
With your [Em]corsage on your s[Bm]weaty palm
Your f[E7]ace in a feverish [Am7]smile
How I [C]recall those [D]memories

A little [G]polish on these [Bm]cufflinks
Yeah, they’re [C]silver, no, they ain’t [G]gold (No, they ain’t gold)
An inscri[G]ption there in L[Bm]atin
Whose m[Am7]eaning you never w[D7]ere t[D]old
But if you [G]shine up those [Em]cufflinks
They [C]never, ever l[D]ook o[G]ld

And it s[Em]eems like only yes[Bm]terday
When you [C]first put on that [G]suit
With yo[Em]ur slicked-back hair, yo[Bm]ur boutonniere
Man, th[E7]e girls, they thought[Am7] you looked cute
How I [C]recall those me[D]mories

A little [G]polish on these [Bm]old shoes
Whose [C]leather time has ab[D]used
A little [G]polish on these [Bm]old shoes
Will make'em sh[D]ine li[C]ke bra[G]nd new

A little [G]polish is gonna m[C]ake'em shine
[D]Like[Am7] brand [G]new
