My Old Man


My Old Man C# F# The old man is laughing tonight Ab C# He's young beyond his fears Ebm Ab But then the smile drops from his eyes 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: Ebm Ab So let him be who he wants to be C# Bbm Cause he ain't ever gonna be young again Ebm Ab And let him see who he needs to see C# Bbm Cause he never had too many friends Ebm Ab And ask him how he remembers me C# Bbm Cause I want to know where I stand F# Ab C# How I love my old 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 by: José Duarte jtduarte1@gmail.com
