Capo 1

        D                         F#m
You can have him, I hope you have fun
        G                              Asus4  A
I guess wife number three could be the one
             D                         F#m
But it won't be long till you won't be new
             G                                           A    
And he'll be downtown trying to find someone to make the mirror stop tellin' the truth


Chorus)
D
Old men, young women only work in the beginning
G                               Asus4            A
She's the past in summer dress, he's a ride in a red corvette
D
She's a prize, he's winning, she thinks it is what it isn't
    G                                      Asus4    A
And neither one can change what's missing, old men, young women



Well, you say he's so nice, he treats you so good
Well, he's had enough damn practice, he sure as hell should
He knows what to buy you and he knows what you say
And maybe it's nobodies business what you're willing to trade

Chorus


Bridge:
D                   F#m                      G 
You want the lights off, he wants the lights on
              Asus4    A 
So you can pretend that he can hold on
D                   F#m               G 
You want the lights off so you can pretend
            Asus4                   A
That he can hold on, hold on, hold on


Chorus

Old men, young women
