The bill on his old ball cap

          A
Is bent like an A frame house

Bm           A                    G
Sittin' on a park bench with some beach nut in his mouth

Said no one reads the paper,

These days it's all online

We could use another Raegan

Boy he was one of a kind

He shook his head, behind the times

He said, "Son you're still young, save half of what you make"

       D               A          G                   D
Yeah a man can learn a lot from a man behind the times

        A
Went to church on our first date

I held the door, held her hand back when free love was a rage

Waited til the honeymoon, that suited me just fine

D                         A               Bm         A       G
When you find a good girl keep her, cause they don't grow on vines

       D                  A       G                D
Yeah a man can learn a lot from a man behind the times

        A              G            D
Yeah he folded up that paper said I better get on home

Bm                   A                             G
Don't wanna keep her waiting when she's got supper on

D                         A         Bm        A     G
When you find a good girl keep her, just like I did mine

       D                  A       G     A        D
Yeah a man can learn a lot from a man behind the times

     D                  A          G     A        D
Yeah man I learned a lot from that man behind the times
