[Refrain]
Gm7 Bb Eb
Once I was seven years old, my mama told me
F
Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely
Gm7 Bb Eb
Once I was seven years old
[Verse]
Gm Bb
It was a big, big world, but we thought we were bigger
Eb F
Pushing each other to the limits, we were learning quicker
Gm Bb
By eleven smoking herb and drinking burning liquor
Eb F
Never rich so we were out to make that steady figure
[Refrain]

Once I was eleven years old, daddy told me,

Go get yourself a wife or you'll be lonely
Gm7 Bb Eb
Once I was eleven years old
[Verse]
Gm Bb
I always had that dream like my daddy before me
Eb F Gm
So I started writing songs, I started writing stories
Gm Bb
Something about that glory, just always seemed to bore me
Eb F Gm
‘Cause only those I really love will ever really know me
[Refrain]
Gm7 Bb Eb
Once I was twenty years old, my story got told
Eb F Gm
Before the morning sun, when life was lonely
Gm7 Bb Eb
Once I was twenty years old
[Verse]
Gm Bb
I only see my goals, I don't believe in failure
Eb F Gm
‘Cause I know the smallest voices, they can make it major
Gm Bb
I got my boys with me, at least those in favor
Eb F Gm
And if we don't see before I leave, I hope I'll see you later
[Refrain]
Gm7 Bb Eb
Once I was 20 years old, my story got told

I was writing about everything I saw before me

Soon we'll be 30 years old, our songs have been sold
F Gm
We've traveled around the world and we're still roaming
Gm7 Bb Eb Bb
Soon we'll be 30 years old
[Verse]
Gm F Bb
I'm still learning about life,
Bb
my woman brought children for me
Eb
So I can sing them all my songs
F Gm
and I can tell them stories
Gm
Most of my boys are with me,
Bb
some are still out seeking glory
Eb
And some I had to leave behind,
F Gm
my brother I'm still sorry
[Bridge]
Gm7 Bb
Soon I'll be 60 years old, my daddy got 61
Eb F Gm7
Remember life and then your life becomes a better one
Gm7 Bb
I made a man so happy when I wrote a letter once
Eb
I hope my children come and visit, once or twice a month
[Refrain]

Soon I'll be sixty years old, will I think the world is cold
F Gm7
Or will I have a lot of children who can warm me
Gm7 Bb
Soon I'll be 60 years old

Or will I have a lot of children who can warm me
