Old Hands

E B E

[Verse 1]
F                                 
He's an old hand at fixing cars 
   Bb
and bailing hay
              C7                   
And there's nothing he can't do on 
                     F
that old farm
He's tougher than leather for a man 
                Bb
his age
                C7                 
But he's 21 when she's lying in his
                F
 arms

[Verse 2]
F                                 
She's and old hand at baking bread
                    Bb
 and washing clothes
       C7                          
And rocking little babies to sleep
    F

But the calloused hands are softer 
                           Bb
than the morning rose
         F                        
And she always seems to know just 
C7                             F
what he needs

[Chorus]
F                      Bb
When old hands hold hands
C7                             F
With just a touch they understand
F                                  
Life and love and making plans
Bb

C7                         F
 'Cause they're old hands

[Instrumental]
F Bb C7 F x2

[Verse 3]
F                                 
They've pulled a load together 
                    Bb
down a long hard road
    C7                       
And they both know that their 
                               F
journey will end
But they won't be afraid when it's 
                    Bb
their time to go
             C7                    
'Cause chances are they'll just go 
                        F
hand in hand

Chorus (soft guitar picking)
F                      Bb
When old hands hold hands
C7                             F
With just a touch they understand
F                                  
Life and love and making plans
Bb

C7                         F
 'Cause they're old hands
F                                 Bb
Life and love and making plans
C7                         F
 'Cause they're old hands
