I Was A Young Man Once

G  C  F  Em Am F  G  C

[Verse 1]
        F         C
I was a young man once
F     Em    Am               G
I ran fast, life was hit and run
F            G           Am     
I cursed the old men for what 
       G
they had done
     F       G          C
Yea, I was a young man once

[Verse 2]
      F                  C
Crazy love caught in the night
F             Em           G
Left her with child by the morning 
light
F        Em            Dm       
I didn’t care what was wrong or 
G
right
       F       G         C
'Cause I was a young man once

[Chorus]
     F                   Em
Yea, I raised hell and I had big 
dreams

F                 G
I made promises I could not keep
     F           Em    Am
When I hurt love I cut deep
F       G         C
I was a young man once

[Verse 3]
          F         C
I’m not a young man now
   F          Em   Dm      G
It ain’t been easy keeping vows
  F        Em          Am      G
I still do things that ain’t allowed
    F         G         C
But I’m not a young man now

[Verse 4]
           F       C
I’m not an old man yet
    F      Em              Am
But age is chasing me with much 
     G
regret
F           Em       D           
I threw the dice and time won the 
 G
bet
    F          G       C
But I’m not an old man yet

[Chorus]
     F                   Em
Yea, I raised hell and I had big 
dreams
F                 G
I made promises I could not keep
     F           Em    Am
When I hurt love I cut deep
F       G         C
I was a young man once

[Verse 5]
               F       C
You’re just an old man once
   F       Em        Am      G
An old man dreams of what he wants
             F        Em          
He wants the world to know that 
  G
not too long ago
F        G         C
He was a young man once

F       G         C
