Chords

            D
They don't make them like they used to

     G              D
You always used to say

             A
That's why everything you've ever built 

          G              D
Is still standing here today

          D
That old Camaro in the carport

     G                D
The fence along the lane

          A    
All the walls in this old house

       G                  D
Right down to the family name

       D
Mama said you always worried

     G                     D
You wouldn't leave much behind

            A
You can't make a million bucks

        G               D
On some damned assembly line

          D
But you threw every dime you could

           G              D
Into that Folger's coffee can

        A
After ten percent to Jesus 

        G            D
Twenty-five to Uncle Sam

      G                   Bm
Whoah-oh, story after story

                     D
Of all your faded glory

               A
Is all I ever hope to live up to

      G                    Bm
Whoah-oh, know as I get older

                          D
I'm standing on your shoulders

                       A
Trying to be just like you

                                       D
But they don't make 'em like they used to
D - A - G
         D
Well you always used to warn me

           G             D
About this highway I was on

          A
Ain't no way to make a living

          G                 D
Squeezing pennies out of songs

          D
And I may never build a castle

        G                  D
But the ends meet up somehow

           A    
Throwing coins into a coffee can

      G                 D
Oh if you could see me now

      G                   Bm
Whoah-oh, story after story

                     D
Of all your faded glory

                A
Is all I ever hope to live up to

      G                    Bm
Whoah-oh, know as I get older

                            D
I'm standing on your shoulders

                       A
Trying to be just like you

                                       D
But they don't make 'em like they used to
D - A - G
Bm                         G
Leather skin, tough as nails

                         Bm
Promises that never failed

                        G
Solid as the gospel truth

                                 Bm
They don't make 'em like they used to

      G                    Bm
Whoah-oh, know as I get older

                            D
I'm standing on your shoulders

                        A
Trying to be just like you

                                       D     A G
But they don't make 'em like they used to…

                                   D     A G
They don't make 'em like they used to  
(repeat until song fades out)
