[Gm] Once I was seven [Bb] years old, my mama [Eb] told me,
Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely.
[Gm] Once I was seven [Bb] years old, [Eb]
[Gm] it was a big, [Bb] big world,
But we thought we were [Eb] bigger, pushing each other to the limits.
[F] We were learning [Gm] quicker, by eleven, [Bb] smoking herb and drinking burning [Eb] liquor.
Never rich, so we were out to [F] make that steady [Gm] figure.
Once I was eleven [Bb] years old, my daddy [Eb] told me,
Go get yourself a wife or [F] you'll be lonely.
[Gm] Once I was eleven [Bb] years old, [Eb]
[Gm] I always had [Bb] that dream,
Like my daddy [Eb] before me.
So I started writing songs, I [F] started writing [Gm] stories,
Something about that [Bb] glory, just always seemed to [Eb] bore me.
Cause only those I really love will [F] ever really [Gm] know me.
Once I was twenty [Bb] years old, my story [Eb] got told,
Before the morning sun when [Dm] life was [Gm] lonely.
Once I was twenty [Bb] years old, [Eb] I
[Gm] only see [Bb] my goals,
I don't believe in [Eb] failure, cause I know the smallest voices,
[F] They can make it [Gm] major.
I got my boys [Bb] with me, at least those in [Eb] favor,
And if we don't meet before I leave, I [F] hope I'll see you [Gm] later.
Once I was twenty [Bb] years old, my story [Eb] got told,
I was writing about everything I [F] saw before [Gm] me.
Once I was twenty [Bb] years old, [Eb]
[Gm] soon we'll be thirty [Bb] years old,
Our songs have [Eb] been sold, we've traveled around the world and [F] we're still roaming,
[Gm] Soon we'll be thirty [Bb] years old.
[Eb]
[Gm] I'm still learning about [Bb] life, my woman brought children [Eb] for me,
So I can sing them all my songs and [F] I can tell them [Gm] stories,
Most of my boys are [Bb] with me, some are still out seeking [Eb] glory,
And some I had to leave behind my [Bb] brother, I'm still [Eb] savvy.
Soon I'll be sixty [Gm] years old, my daddy got [F] sixty-one,
Remember life and then your life becomes a better [Eb] one,
I made a man so [F] happy when I [Gm] wrote a letter [D] once,
I hope my children come and [D] visit once or twice a [Eb] month,
Soon I'll be sixty [Gm] years old, will I think the [F] world is cold,
Or will I have a lot of [Bb] children who can warm [Eb] me?
Soon I'll be sixty [Gm] years old.
