The Older I Get

	  		
Intro: D G A D 

verse 1 
D 
The older I get 
            G 
The more I think 
          A 
You only get a minute, better live while you're in it 
                   D 
'Cause it's gone in a blink 

And the older I get 
           G 
The truer it is 
                       A 
It's the people you love, not the money and stuff 
                D 
That makes you rich 

             G                    D 
And if they found a fountain of youth 
                       A                 D 
I wouldn't drink a drop and tha's the truth 
       G                              D                 A 
Funny how it feels I'm just getting to my best years yet 


verse 2 
              D 
The older I get 
                      G 
The fewer friends I have 
                      A 
But you don't need a lot when the ones that you got 
                       D 
Have always got your back 

And the older I get 
             G 
The better I am 
                     A 
At knowing when to give 
                             D 
And when to just not give a damn 

             G                   D 
And if they found a fountain of youth 
                     A                  D 
I wouldn't drink a drop and that's the truth 
       G                            D                  A 
Funny how it feels I'm just getting to my best years yet 
            D 
The older I get
 

Instrumental 

Bridge 
             G              D 
And I don't mind all the lines 
              A                     D 
From all the times I've laughed and cried 
       G                D                     A 
Souvenirs and little signs of the life I've lived 

verse 3 
             D 
The older I get 
              G 
The longer I pray 
                  D       A 
I don't know why, I guess that I 
            D 
Got more to say 

And the older I get 
                  G 
The more thankful I feel 
                      A                              D 
For the life I've had, and all the life I'm living still
