Chris Young – Gettin Older (Guitar)

C
Might as well be ten feet tall, built of steel, and twice as strong

       F
With a mind just like a wellspring full of lessons

         C
He wakes up and works while he's still able

C
Sunday nights around that table

      F
He'll cross his calloused hands and lead the blessing

             C
And he loves momma every day, she still looks at him the same

             F                                     G
He's watched time keep tickin' by, but he don't complain

         F
Yeah, we love to sing, "Forever Young"

    G                             C        G/B            Am7   G
And hope the trips around the sun start spinnin' a little slower

          F                                        G
And we're scared that if you blink your еyes, your twenties turn to forty-fivе

    C                 G/B                  Am7
And life puts all its weight there on your shoulders

       G              F                        G
But if I get half the chance to be like my old man

                          C
I ain't afraid of gettin' older

C
I got a few grays just like him and scars to show the life I've lived

        F
And I'm settlin' down more with every season

               C
And sure, he's further down the road

C
But he still shows me where to go

       F                         G
How to live, how to love, how to raise your own ones up

         F
Yeah, we love to sing, "Forever Young"

    G                             C        G/B            Am7   G
And hope the trips around the sun start spinnin' a little slower

          F                                        G
And we're scared that if you blink your еyes, your twenties turn to forty-fivе

    C                 G/B                  Am7
And life puts all its weight there on your shoulders

       G              F                        G
But if I get half the chance to be like my old man

                          F
I ain't afraid of gettin' older

 G
No, no

                         C
So, let those years pile up

    G/B                   Am7
And let those clocks keep runnin'

       G                   F
'Cause they don't stop for nothin' anyway

            G
And that's okay

         F
Yeah, we love to sing, "Forever Young"

    G                             C        G/B            Am7   G

          F                                        G

                          C
I ain't afraid of gettin' older

 Am7
No, no

         G        F                        G

                          C

C
Mm-hmm
