Old Pen

              D        G
I met an old man
                        D         G
I said, "Tell me your story"
                   Bm         G
He took out an old pen
                        D      G
And wrote somethin' for me
 G            A         G 
Then he kept walking on down 
        D
the road
          A                     
And I watched him disappear like 
  G
smoke
    Bm       A        G        D
And I thought I'd just seen a ghost
        A                       
Then I looked down at what he'd

[Verse 2]
         D            G
I met a young man
                D     G
Searchin' for glory
                Bm      G
I took out an old pen
                 D        G
And wrote him my story
   G         A          G        D
Then I kept walking on down the road
             A                     
When your time is up, it's time to 
 G
go
   Bm    A      G              D
I pray he reads what's on the note
       A                     Asus4
And takes to heart what I wrote



[Chorus]
           G             D    
It said, "Son, when you grow up 
             Asus4  A
