I met an old man one night in a bar
          G      Am
He was sitting alone
         G             F
The way men his age always are
     G              C
His movements were slow
         G         C
Didn't speak very well
      G        Am        E        F
But every old man has a story to tell

Every old man has a story to tell

He lived by the book
          G           C
Went to church every day
     G              Am
His wife left him young
           G            F
With two daughters and bills to pay
     G             C
He worked himself hard
          G              C
And the years flickered past
      G              Am            E          F
His girls kept him young but they grew up so fast

Prodigal Faith always felt second best

When she turned seventeen
              Am            G           F
She took her coat and her camera And headed west
     G              C
It broke her dad's heart
       G            C
But as he likes to say
       G           Am         E          F
With enough time apart even Faith fades away

With enough time apart even Faith fades away

And that August he joined the war
          G          C
He said Jenny don't cry

I'll be home in the fall
        G             Am             E         F
So she held her head high and said nothing at all

For all she knows it's stlil flying around up there
       G          C
Then Jenny went wrong
         G           C
And the last that I heard
            G          Am              E         F
It's been seven years long since she uttered a word

And smokes cigarettes he knows he can't afford

He's got no regrets
           G           C
Says he's doing quite well
     G        Am          E       F
But every old man has a story to tell
