Chords

C#                        F# 
The old man is laughing tonight

G#                    C# 
He's young beyond his fears

D#m                                    G#
But then the smile drops from his eyes and we all wind up in tears

The old man's crying tonight Cause it all happened so fast He's frightened by the future, embarrassed by the past Chorus:

D#m                   G#
So let him be who he wants to be

               C#                   Bbm
Cause he ain't ever gonna be young again

D#m                     G#
And let him see who he needs to see

         C#                   Bbm
Cause he never had too many friends

D#m                   G#
And ask him how he remembers me 

      C#                     Bbm
Cause I want to know where I stand

F#    G#          C#
How I love my old man

The old man's restless tonight Just trying to kill his pain He believes what he says he believes but that don't make him a saint The old man's lonesome tonight And he just wants to go home All those fools who stand in his way why can't they leave him alone Chorus by: José Duarte [email protected]
