[D] [G]
[A] [A] [D]
The older I get, the [G] more I think.
You [A] only get a minute, better live while you're in it,
cause it's [D] gone in a blink.
And the older I get, the [G] truer it is.
It's the [A] people you love, not the money and stuff,
that [D] makes you rich.
And if [G] they found a fountain [D] of youth,
I wouldn't [A] drink a drop, and [D] that's the truth.
Funny [G] how it feels, I'm just [D] getting to my best [A] years yet.
The older [D] I get, the fewer friends [G] I have.
But you don't [A] need a lot, and the ones that you've got,
they've [D] always got you bad.
And the older I get, the better [G] I am,
at knowing [A] when to give and when to just not give a [D] damn.
And if [G] they found a fountain [D] of youth,
I wouldn't [A] drink a drop, and [D] that's the truth.
Funny [G] how it feels, I'm just [D] getting to my best [A] years yet.
The older [G] I get, [D] [A] [D]
[G] [A]
[D] [G]
[A] [D] [D]
and I [G] don't mind [D] all the lines,
from [A] all the times I've [D] laughed and cried.
[G] Souvenirs and [D] little signs of the [A] life I've lived.
And the [D] older I get, the [G] longer I pray.
I [A] don't know why, I [A] guess that I've got [D] more to say.
And the older I get, the more [G] thankful I feel,
for the [A] life I've had, and all the life I'm [D] living still.
[G]
[A] Whoa.
