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