Old Pen

              D        G
I met an old man
                        D         G
I said, "Tell me your story"
                   Bm         G
He took out an old pen
                        D      G
And wrote somethin' for me
 G            A         G         D
Then he kept walking on down the road
          A                       G
And I watched him disappear like smoke
    Bm       A        G        D
And I thought I'd just seen a ghost
        A                       Asus4
Then I looked down at what he'd wrote


[Chorus]
           G             D                 Asus4  A
It said, "Son, when you grow up you'll be fine
    G                 D              Asus4    A
I know, you've got questions on your mind
  G                    D                    Asus4                  Bm
Life is gonna happen one way or the other, whether you like it or not
      G                  D              A                  D
Stop looking for answers and you'll find, what you've got"
   D     G     D          G         D    G
              Mm-mm-mm-mm, mm


[Verse 2]
         D            G
I met a young man
                D     G
Searchin' for glory
                Bm      G
I took out an old pen
                 D        G
And wrote him my story
   G         A          G        D
Then I kept walking on down the road
             A                      G
When your time is up, it's time to go
   Bm    A      G              D
I pray he reads what's on the note
       A                     Asus4
And takes to heart what I wrote



[Chorus]
           G             D                 Asus4  A
It said, "Son, when you grow up you'll be fine
    G                 D              Asus4    A
I know, you've got questions on your mind
  G                    D                    Asus4                  Bm
Life is gonna happen one way or the other, whether you like it or not
      G                  D              A                  D
Stop looking for answers and you'll find, what you've got"
