[Verse 1]
G            AmOld Man on a Bar Stool
G        AmWatching tv
   G               Bm          Em        CHe got up and came over to sit closer to me
        G        AmHe said you look familiar
   G         AmTo someone I knew
    G            Bm               Em         CBut when we were your age we were older than you
G         AmJimmy was 20
    G     AmAnd I 17
   G            Bm          Em        CTo us there was nothing but girls and machines
G         AmJimmy got married
    G         AmAnd I went to war
G                Bm           Em       CI still don't know what we were doing it for
