Much Too Young (To Feel This Damn Old)

Garth Brooks

His first single off his debut album in 1989.


G                             Am
This old highway's getting longer
D            C              G      D
Seems there ain't no end in sight
G
To sleep would be best
           Am
But I just can't afford to rest
D                  C            G      D
I gotta ride in Denver tomorrow night


G                               Am
I called the house, but no one answered
D                   C                 G    D
For the last two weeks no one's been home
G
I guess she's through with me
             Am
To tell the truth, I just can't see
       D               C             G
What's kept the woman holding on this long


(CHORUS)
         C
And the white line's getting longer
         G                Em
And the saddle's getting cold
        C                  D             G
Now I'm much too young to feel this damn old
        C                             G                Em
All my cards are on the table with no ace left in the hole
        C                  D             G
Now I'm much too young to feel this damn old


    G                      Am
The competition's getting younger
         D           C               G     D
Tougher broncs, you know I can't recall
            G
A worn out tape of Chris LeDoux
       Am
Lonely women and bad booze
         D           C                  G
Seem to be the only friends I've left at all.


(CHORUS)
         C
And the white line's getting longer
         G                Em
And the saddle's getting cold
        C                  D             G
Now I'm much too young to feel this damn old
        C                             G                Em
All my cards are on the table with no ace left in the hole
        C                  D             G
Now I'm much too young to feel this damn old

         C                  D             G
Lord I'm much too young to feel this damn old
