Intro
G G
[Verse 1]
G
My old man was not a mover nor a shaker,
C D
just a dreamer; I'm a lot like him.
G
He used to talk a lot about "the old days, mister"
C D
when the times was tough and the money was thin.
G C
He used to go fishin' 'bout once a year,
D G
laughed himself silly on a couple of beers,
C G
tell an old story to a willin' ear
Am D
and then he'd turn right around and tell it again.
[Chorus]
G D C D G
My old man, talkin' 'bout my old man.
C G
He was there at the start with a willin' heart,
Am D
he was there when the world began.
G D C D G
My old man, my old man
C D G
I'm just sittin' here thinkin' 'bout my old man.
[Verse 2]
G
My old man was a "daddy" 'til
C D
I got too cool to call him that anymore.
G
He took my momma to the grange hall dance
C D
and he waltzed her across the floor.
G C
He took us to town on Friday night,
D G
used to chew tobacco when he got uptight.
C G
Just a sittin' and a spittin' in the fading light
Am D
in the car in front of the grocery store.
[Chorus]
G D C D G
My old man, talkin' 'bout my old man.
C G
He was there at the start with a willin' heart,

he was there when the world began.
G D C D G
My old man, my old man
C D G
I'm just sittin' here thinkin' 'bout my old man.

[Verse 3]
G
Well, my old man was a draggin'-in-the-pants man
C D
when he got home from the mill.
G
Between the chores and the weeds and the kids to feed
C D
you know he never had a minute to kill.
G C
But he always had a twinkle in his old grey eyes,
D G
felt a lot better when he worked outside.
C G
Worked right up 'til the day he died
Am D
and I bet the Lord's got him workin' still.
[Chorus]
G D C D G
My old man, talkin' 'bout my old man.

My old man, talkin' 'bout my old man.

My old man, my old man
C D G
I'm just sittin' here thinkin' 'bout my old man.

I'm just sittin' here thinkin' 'bout my old man.
