_ [F#] _ _ [B] Once I was seven years old, my mama [E] told me
Go make yourself some [F#] friends or you'll be [G#m] lonely
Once [B] I was seven years old
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _
_ [F#] _ _ [G#m] It was a [F#] big, big [B] world but we thought we were [E] bigger
Pushing each other to the limits, [F#] we were learning [G#m] quicker
[F#] Buy your loving, [B] smoking, herbing, drinking, burning [E] liquor
Never rich so we were out to [F#] make that steady [G#m] figure
Once I was [F#] eleven [B] years old, my daddy [E] told me
Go get yourself a wife or [F#m] you'll be lonely
[G#m] Once I was [F#] eleven [B]
years old
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [G#m] I've always [F#] had that [B] dream like my daddy before [E] me
So I started writing songs, I [F#] started writing [G#m] stories
Something [F#] about that [B] glory just always seemed to [E] bore me
Cause only those I truly love will [F#] ever really know [G#m] me
Once I was [F#] twenty [B] years old, my story [E] got told
Before the morning sun when [F#] life was lonely
[G#m] Once I was [F#] twenty [B]
years old
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _
_ [F#] _ _ [G#m] I only [F#] seek my [B] goals, I don't believe in [E] failure
Cause I know the smallest voices [F#] they can make it [G#m] major
I got my [F#] boys, [B] me, me, at least those in [E] favor
And if we don't meet before I leave I [F#] hope I'll see you [G#m] later
So once I was [F#] twenty [B] years old, my story [E] got told
I was writing about everything I [F#] saw before me
[G#m] Once I was [F#] twenty years [B] _
_ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _
_ [F#] _ [B] old
Soon we'll be thirty years old, our songs have [E] been sold
We've [B] traveled around the world and [F#] missed the world
And [B] soon we'll be thirty years old
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _
_ [F#] _ _ [G#m] I'm still [F#] learning about [B]
life, my woman brought children for [E] me
So [B] I can sing them all my [F#] songs and I can tell them [G#m] stories
Most of my [A#m] boys are [B] with me, some are still out seeking [E] glory
And some I had to leave behind, [B] brother I'm so [E] sorry
Soon I'll be [F#] sixty [G#m] years old, my daddy got [F#] sixty-one
Remember life and [B] then your life becomes a better [E] one
I made a man so [F#] happy when I [G#m] wrote a letter [D#] once
I hold my children come and visit once or twice a month
[E] Soon I'll be [F#] sixty [G#m] years old, will I think the [F#] world is cold
Or will I have a [B] lot of children who can warm me
[E] Soon I'll be [F#] sixty [G#m] years old, _ [E] _ _ _ _ _
_ [F#] _ _ [G#m] soon I'll be [D#m] _ [B] _
_ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _

[G#m] Once I was seven [B] years old, my mama [E] told me
Go make yourself [C#m] some friends or [D#m] you'll be lonely
[G#m] Once [B] I was seven years old
