Em G Once I was seven years old C my momma told me D go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely Em G C once I was seven years old
Em D G It was a big big world C but we thought we were bigger
Pushing each other to the limits D Em we were learning quicker D G By eleven smoking herb C and drinking burning liquor D Never rich so we were out to make that steady figure
Em D G Once I was eleven years old C my daddy told me D go get yourself a wife or you'll be lonely Em D G C Once I was eleven years old
Em D G I always have that dream C like my Daddy before me
So I started writing songs D Em I started writing stories D G Something about that glory C just always seemed to bore me
Cause only those I really love
D
will ever really know me
Em D G Once I was twenty years old C my story got told D before the morning sun, when life was lonely Em D G C Once I was twenty years old
Em D G I only see my goals C I don't believe in failure
Cause I know the smallest voices D Em they can make it major D G C I got my boys with me at least those in favor
and if we don´t meet before I leave
D
I hope I see you later
Em D G Once I was twenty years old C my story got told
I was writing about everything D I saw before me Em D G C Once I was twenty years old
Em D G Soon we´ll be 30 years old C our songs have been sold
we've traveled around the world D and we´re still roaming Em D G C Soon we´ll be 30 years old
Em G I´m still learning about life C my woman brought children for me
so I can sing them all my songs D and I can tell them stories Em Most of my boys are with me G C some are still out seeking glory
And some I had to leave behind
G/B
my brother, I´m still sorry
C D Em Soon I´ll be sixty years old D my daddy got sixty-one G/B remember life and then your life
becomes a better one C I made a man so happy D Em when I wrote a letter once Bsus4 B I hope my children come and visit
