Fifty Years Too Late

E G A E

[Verse 1]
        E
I love spring and dogs and rusty screen doors
G
Candle light on creaky wood floors
   A                              E
A good sunrise and fireflys in a jar, yessir
   E
A banjo ringing through the pines
    G                                A
The way I feel on homemade wine and jug fishing
                     E
Under a sky full of stars

[Pre-Chorus 1]
          A                   E
Said I'm okay, yes, I'm just fine
               A
Just wish the world would move slower
        B
Or that I could go back in time

[Chorus]
                       E
Well, but I'm still a down home southern boy
   G                       A               E
I don't need nothing just enough to get me by
       E                      G
I was raised at an early age when you shake a man's hand
     A                      E
You look him square in the eye
             E                      G
Well, I'm a real cool, old school, don't you lie to me fool
       A                           E
There ain't a damn thing about me fake
       E                      G
I'm a modern day John Wayne, got my daddy's last name
A                     E         E  G  A  E
Born fifty years too late, yep

[Verse 2]
    E                       G
So whatever happened to an honest day's work
A                   E
Sweating hard in a flannel shirt
        E                   G
It's a fast paced rat race, no giving all take
A                   E
Who's gonna finish first
E              G                  A                   E
Nowadays it's safe to say that a damn dog's got more rights
       E                             G
Cause the administration's trying to rule the population
           A                         E
Folks, we gotta stand up, we gotta fight

[Pre-Chorus 2]
                A                           E
But I don't complain, just take it all in stride
                    A
It just seems this whole world, it has changed
B
Almost overnight
