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