C
He'd get home at five thirty, fix his drink,
F
Sit down in his chair,
G
Pick a fight with momma,
C
Complain about us kids getting in his hair,
At night he'd sit alone and smoke,
F
I'd see his frown behind his lighters flame,
Dm
Now that same frown is in my mirror,
G C
I got my daddies blood inside my veins
[Chorus]
C F G C
Fish swim, Birds fly, daddies yell, mommas cry,
F Am Dm G C
Old men, sit and think, I drink.

C
ya got that Chicken TV dinner, six minutes, on defrost,
F
Three on high,
G
Beer to wash it down with, then another,
C
little whisky on the side,
It's not so bad alone here, it don't bother me,
F
That every night's the same,
Dm
I don't need another lover,
G C
Hanging round, trying to make me change
[Chorus]
C F G C
Fish swim, Birds fly, lovers leave, by and by
F Am Dm G C
Old men, sit and think, I drink.
E Em F Em F D G
I know, what I am, but I don't……, I don't give a damn.
C F G C
Fish swim, Birds fly, daddies yell, mommas cry,
F Am Dm G C
Old men, sit and think, I drink.
