David Allan Coe - Old Man Tell Me
Capo 1
E
I've seen the old man sittin' round
The courthouse square back home in town
A F#m A B
Talkin' about the big war, back in 1943
E
Sayin' how much good it's done
Medals gleamin' in the sun
A F#m
Cussin' at my long hair
A B
And my talk of bein' free.
E
Their vision like their battle scars
B
Of other wars has faded
A
Like the colors on the ribbons
E
From the battles that they've won
A
If there's one thing I've learned it's this
E C#m
You just can't shake hand with a fist
F#m B
And I once did my talkin' with a gun.
E
And old man I know what you've seen
B
But yours is not the only dream
A G#m F#m A B
I have to believe in something more than yesterday
E
Let it die just like the past
B A
I believe there's hope at last
B
Old man, did you ever have to pray
E
Old man, can you show me the way.
E
He shakes his head from time to time
And rambles somewhere in his mind
A F#m
Mumblin' bout the civil war
A B
And how we should have won
E
Settin' up his battle plans
On checker boards at his command
A F#m A B
Watchin' all his gallant kings go fallen one by one.
E
And "son he'd say there's not much time
For you to straighten out your mind
A F#m B
But you never listen, to the things I try to say
E
And I just turn my head and cry
Never understanding why
A F#m
He'd set up that checkerboard
B
When he knew I couldn't play.
