VERSE:
I had my rent[F#]-a-car flyin' down a two-lane road

[E]Late for my plan[B]e again[F#]

[F#]Had to stop for some gas at this country store

[E]That's when I saw t[B]he old man[F#]

He was kick[D#m]ed back workin' on a big R C[B][C#]

[D#m]Watchin' Gomer Pyle on his little TV[B]

[F#]Took him awhile [C#]to even notice m[B]e

[G#m]Sittin' there I thought to myself[G#m7/C#][C#]

CHORUS:

Old man ([F#]Old Man)

You got one up on [D#m]me

[B]I'm still lookin' for my shad[C#]y tree

With your two g[D#m]as pumps and your color TV[G#]

Your sat[B]isfied as you can be[G#]

Old Ma[G#m]n (Old Man)

I [C#]guess you got one up on me[F#][D#m][F#m][D#m]

VERSE:
Well he fina[F#]lly strolled over with a big 'ol smile

[E]Said "How ya doin, [B]son?"[F#]

[F#]I said "Give me five dollars worth as fast as you can.....

...'cause I'm[E] really in a[B] run."[F#]

He sa[D#m]id "What's your hurry on a day like th[B]is?....[C#]

If you mo[D#m]ve too fast, there's a lot you[B]'ll miss.....

[F#]If you wanna see [C#]what the good lif[B]e is.....

Just ge[G#m]t out and visit awhile.[G#m7/C#]"[C#]

REPEAT CHORUS

BRIDGE:
[D#m]Don't remember just what it was

The ol[B]d man said to me[C#]

[D#m]...But I forgot about catchin' the plane

And op[G#m]ened up the big R. [F#/A#] C.[B][C#]
