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