Old Man Lyrics

This is one of my favourite Neil Young songs and is relatively easy to play, but
mastering all the embellishments in Neil's chord picking (not shown here) is more tricky.
(Repeat above)
(play as intro)
Old man look at my life, I'm a lot like you were.
Old man look at my life , I'm a lot like

you were

Old man look at my life, twenty four and there's so much more.
maj7
Live alone in a paradise that makes me think of two.
Love lost, such a cost, give me things that don't get lost.
Like a coin that won't get tossed rolling home to you
Bass run into chorus G A B C D
Intro D Dsus4 D Am7 Em7 G
Old man take a look at my life I'm a lot like you.
I need someone to love me the whole day through.
Ah, one look in my eyes and you can tell that's true.
Bridge to verse

2nd Verse
Lullabies, look in your eyes, run around the same old town.
Doesn't mean that much to me to mean that much to you.
I've been first and last, look at how the time goes past.
But I'm all alone at last, rolling home to you.
Run into chorus G A B C D
Repeat chorus
Repeat intro
But on the last "you were" finish with...
you were.
