My Old Man Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

C♯The old man is laughing toF♯night

G♯He's young beyond his C♯fears

D♯mBut then the smile drops from his eyes G♯and we all wind up in tears

The old man's crying tonight

Cause it all happened so fast

He's frightened by the future, embarrassed by the past

Chorus

D♯mSo let him be who he wG♯ants to be

 Cause he ain't C♯ever gonna be young aA♯mgain

D♯mAnd let him see who he nG♯eeds to see

 Cause he C♯never had too many frA♯miends

D♯mAnd ask him how he remG♯embers me

 Cause C♯I want to know where I A♯mstand

F♯How I G♯love my old C♯man

The old man's restless tonight

Just trying to kill his pain

He believes what he says he believes but that don't make him a saint

The old man's lonesome tonight

And he just wants to go home

All those fools who stand in his way why can't they leave him alone

Chorus
