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