50 Years Too Late Chords by Leith Loftin

_ _ _ _ [Gb] _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ _ _ _ I like spring dogs and rusty screen doors, [Gb] _ candlelight on creaky wood [Abm] floors, a good
sunrise and fireflies in [Eb] a jar, [Ab] _
_ [Eb] a banjo ringing through the pine, [Gb] the way I feel on homemade
wine [Abm] and jug fishing underneath [Eb] the stars.
_ _ [Ab] I'm okay, _ [Eb] I'm just fine, I wish the world
would move slower, [Bb] we could go back in time. _
[Bb] But [Eb] I'm just down on [Gb] Southern y'all, I don't
need [Ab] nothing just enough to get [Eb] me by.
I was raised in an [Gb] early age when you shake a [Ab] man's
hand looking square [Ebm] in the eye.
[Eb] I'm real cool, [Gb] old school, don't lie to [Ab] me fool, ain't a thing
[Eb] about me fake.
I'm a modern day [Db] John Wayne with my daddy's [Ab] last name, born fifty years
too late.
[Eb] _ _ [Gb] _ _ [Ab] _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ _ [Gb] _ _ [Ab] _ _
[Ebm] _ [Eb] Yeah, whatever [Gb] happened to an honest day's [Ab] work, sweating [Eb] hard in a flannel shirt,
it was a fast-paced, [Gb] right race, no give [Eb] or take, who's gonna finish first?
Hell nowadays,
[Gb] it's safe to [Eb] say that a damn dog's got more rights, cause the [Gb] administration's trying to
lose the [Ab] population, folks have got to stand [Eb] up and fight.
But [Ab] I don't complain, I take it [Ebm] all in
stride.
[Ab] But it seems the whole damn world has [Bb] changed, we're almost over nine.
_ _ _ But I'm [Eb] still
down on [Gb] Southern and I don't need [Ab] nothing just enough to get [Eb] me by.
I was raised in an [Gb] early
age when you shake a [Ab] man's hand looking square [Ebm] in the eye.
[Eb] I'm real cool, [Gb] old school, don't lie to [Ab] me
fool, ain't a thing [Ebm] about me fake.
I'm a modern day [Ab] John Wayne with my daddy's last name, born
fifty years too [Ebm] late. _
