[F] [G] [Am] [G] [F]
[Dm] [C] [G] [C]
Now and then [Am] an old friend of mine [F] I've not seen [G] for some time
Will [C] [G] stop [Am] by and ask me Where [F] have I been?
What's [G] on my mind?
[F] They wonder why [G] I'm not drinking And [C] still painting [G] this old [Am] town red
I [F] tell them I'm [G] serving Jesus now [F] And the [G] old man [C] is dead
[F] [C]
[F] And the man you see [G] before you May [C] [G] look a lot the [A] [Am] same
I [F] may wear the [G] same clothes And [C] have the [G] same old [Am] name
But
[Em] [F] you're looking on the [G] outside If you could [C] see [G] inside [Am] instead
You
[F] would see [G] a brand new man [F] Cause the [G] old [C] man is dead
[F] [G]
[Am] [G] [F] [Dm]
[G] [C]
I used to live [Am] such a wicked life [G] I [F] had no hope [G] inside
[Dm] [C] I was lost in [Am] darkness [F] Searching for the [G] light
[F] Then one night [G] in a little church [C] After hearing what [G] the preacher [Am] said
I [F] gave my [G] life to Jesus And [F] the [G] old [C] man was dead
And [Dm] [Em] [F] the man you see [G] before you [C] May [G] look a lot [Am] the same
[F] I may wear [G] the same clothes And [C] have [G] the same [Am] old name
But [F] you're looking on [G] the outside If you [C] could see [G]
inside [Am] instead
You [F] would see [G] a brand new man [F] Cause the old [G]
man [C] is dead
You're [F] looking on [G] the outside If you could [C] see [G]
inside instead
[Am] [F] You would see a [G] brand new man Cause [F] the old [G]
[C] man is dead
