Sol-                           Sib                            Re# 
Once I was seven years old, my mamma told me

Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely.

Once I was seven years old.

It was a big big world, but we thought we were bigger.
                                                             Fa                    Sol-
Pushing each other to the limits, we were learning quicker.
                            Sib                                     Re# 
By eleven smoking herb and drinking burning liquor
                                                               Fa
Never rich so we were out to make that steady figure
Sol-                              Sib                            Re# 
Once I was eleven years old, my daddy told me
                                                        Fa
Go get yourself a wife or you'll be lonely.

I always had that dream like my daddy before me
                                                    Fa
So I started writing songs, I started writing stories
Sol-                               Sib                                           Re# 
Something about the glory, just always seemed to bore me
                                                             Fa
Cause only those I really love will ever really know me
Sol-                               Sib                         Re# 
Once I was twenty years old, my story got told
                                                              Fa
Before the morning sun, when life was lonely.
Sol-                                Sib   Re# 
Once I was twenty years old.
Sol-               Sib                                     Re# 
I only see my goals, I don't believe in failure.
                                                                 Fa
Cause I know the smallest voices, they can make it major.
Sol-                      Sib                            Re# 
I got my boys with me atleast those in favor
                                                                   Fa
And if we don't lead before I leave, I hope i'll see you later.
Sol-                       Sib                        Re# 
Once I was 20 years old, my story got told
                                                           Fa
I was writing about everything, I saw before me

Sol-                           Sib                                   Re# 
Soon we'll be 30 years old, our songs have been sold
                                                                         Fa
We've traveled around the world and we're still roaming.
Sol-                            Sib   Re#

My woman brought children for me
So I can sing them all my songs
               Fa
And I can tell them stories

Most of my boys are with me
Sib
Some are still out seeking glory

And some I had to leave behind
                 Sib
My brother I'm still sorry
Re#                         Sol-                         Fa
Soon I'll be 60 years old, my daddy got 61
                                           Sib
Remember life and then your life becomes a better one
Re#                                Fa                    Sib
I made the man so happy when I wrote a letter once
Re-                                       Re
I hope my children come and visit, once or twice a month
Re#                         Sol-                                    Fa
Soon I'll be 60 years old, will I think the world is cold
                                  Re-
Or will I have a lot of children who can bore me
