[Verse 1]
E
My old man was not a mover nor a shaker,
A B
just a dreamer; I'm a lot like him.
E
He used to talk a lot about "the old days, mister"
A B
when the times was tough and the money was thin.
E A
He used to go fishin' 'bout once a year,
B E
laughed himself silly on a couple of beers,
A E
tell an old story to a willin' ear
F#m B
and then he'd turn right around and tell it again.
[Chorus]
E B A B E
My old man, talkin' 'bout my old man.
A E
He was there at the start with a willin' heart,

he was there when the world began.

My old man, my old man
A B E
I'm just sittin' here thinkin' 'bout my old man.
[Verse 2]
E
My old man was a "daddy" 'til
A B
I got too cool to call him that anymore.
E
He took my momma to the grange hall dance
A B
and he waltzed her across the floor.
E A
He took us to town on Friday night,
B E
used to chew tobacco when he got uptight.
A E
Just a sittin' and a spittin' in the fading light
F#m B
in the car in front of the grocery store.
[Chorus]

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

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