Willie Nelson.
Don't Let The Old Man In.
Album: First Rose Of Spring.
E
Don't let the old man in,
A
I wanna live me some more,
B B7 E/B B7
Can't leave it up to him,
E
He's knocking on my door,
E E7
I knew all of my life,
A
That someday it would end,
B B7 E/B B7
Get up and go outside,
E E7
Don't let the old man in,
(Chorus)
A
Many moons I have lived,
E
My body's weathered and worn,
F#7
Ask yourself how old you'd be,
B B7
If you didn't know the day you were born,
E
Try to love on your wife,
A
And stay close to your friends,
B
Toast each sundown with wine,
B7 E E/B B7
And don't let the old man in.
Solo: E A B7 A E A B7 E
(Chorus)
A
Many moons I have lived,
E
My body's weathered and worn,
F#7
Ask yourself how old you'd be,
B B7 E/B B7
If you didn't know the day you were born,
E
When he rides up on his horse,
A
And you feel that cold bitter wind,
B
Look out your window and smile,
B7 E E/B B7
And don't let the old man in,
A B
Look out your window and smile,
B7 E
Don't let the old man in.
