Smoke and Whistles (Capo 1 or 3)
[Verse 1]
G C G I see and old man sitting with a young man’s heart G C G He knows lot about living but he ain’t been far (He’s even bled for his stars) G C G 63 years since he was as young as me G C Em 85 years living wild and free
[Verse 2]
G C G He keeps one foot down and one on the rise G D Em Smoking his cigarette with a fire in his eyes G C G He can tell you stories about death and life G D C About finding love watching widows cry
[Chorus]
Em D C But oh I see in me Em D C That old man coming to be Em D C And oh I feel in me Em D G That old man, watching over me
[Verse 3]
G C G Some say it’s a matter of time G C G Before that old man hits the end of line G C G Drowning his problems from the top of the day G C Em Drinking to the one whose memory fade away
[Verse 4]
G C G She was 4 foot 8, an angel in disguise G D Em And the devil wouldn’t even cross her line G C G She would share a smile that got sweeter with time G D C Then wash it away with some sherry wine
[Chorus]
Em D C But oh I see in me Em D C That old man coming to be Em D C And oh I feel in me Em D G That old man, watching over me
[Ending Chorus]
Em D C But oh I see in me Em D C That old man coming to be Em D C And oh I feel in me Em D C That old man, watching over me Em D C That old man, watching over me Em D G That old man, is gonna watch over me
