Hello Old Man

G                       C          G
Hello old man, have you room for a wanderer
C       G        D         G
Running from his checkered past
G               C        G
No I'm not your favorite son
  C     G    D        G
I never even tied for last


G                          C            G
Do you still cuss the dirt and pray for rain
C        G              D        G
Stubborn as the sun and twice as vain
G               C        D
Think about all you have done
           C       G         D        G
Before you tell me you ain't wandered none


Chorus:

         Em              C         G
Now your wayward son has come back home
           Em                   C     D
What'd you think about me while I was gone
    Em             C       G
Old man when I was on your knee
C                             D          G
Didn't you think I'd turn out to be like me

G                  C        G
Hello old man, the world is strange
C        G                D     G
Cuts you up and mends you back again
    G                   C         D
You got your scars in a forgotten war
C      G      D        G
Mine I got on bar room floors


G                      C            G
Well you told me tales when I was a child
C         G                  D       G
Lord they made me wonder and made me wild
G                C       D
I guess I had to be like you
      C          G       D      G
There weren't no war but I made do


Chorus:

         Em              C         G
Now your wayward son has come back home
           Em                   C     D
What'd you think about me while I was gone
    Em             C       G
Old man when I was on your knee
C                             D          G
Didn't you think I'd turn out to be like me


G                  C      G
Hello old man life rolls along
C        G              D             G
I'm just trying to reap what you have sown
          G                     C       D
You never wished me well on the night I left
C         G        D       G
But in my eyes you saw yourself


Chorus:

         Em              C         G
Now your wayward son has come back home
           Em                   C     D
What'd you think about me while I was gone
    Em             C       G
Old man when I was on your knee
C                             D          G
Didn't you think I'd turn out to be like me

C                                  D          G
you should have known I'd turn out to be like you
