[Intro]
G   C    D/F#   G
 
[Verse]
         G                                                 C
From the day she was born she lived like she knew she’d be dying
           D/F#                                                G
She always knew there’d be days in a life when there’d be some crying
          G                                         C
She knows how to spot trouble and heartache a mile away
    D/F#                   D/F#
She doesn’t ignore it, she goes and explores it
                      G
To see what it has to say
 
[Chorus]
             C
She’s an old soul
                     G
She’s got mud on her shoes
                    D/F#
She knows about the messed up crying
                                 G
Broken hearted low down midnight blues
              C
On every dark road
       G
She’s paid the toll
               D/F#
She’s got your number for sure
      D/F#
Don’t mess with her
             G
She’s an old soul
 
[Verse]
            G                             C
She’s got a smile that never shows up too soon
            D/F#                                        G
But when it does it has the magical power to light up a room
                      G                                     C
And when she looks at you she looks straight down into your heart
            D/F#
She won’t remember your name but she’ll remember your pain
         D/F#                G
Make you feel like a work of art
 
[Chorus]
             C
She’s an old soul
                     G
She’s got mud on her shoes
                    D/F#
She knows about the messed up crying
                                 G
Broken hearted low down midnight blues
              C
On every dark road
       G
She’s paid the toll
               D/F#
She’s got your number for sure
      D/F#
Don’t mess with her
             G
She’s an old soul
 
[Bridge]
              D/F#                                      G    G/F#
You think you know her but the truth is you never quite will
                Em                      C           D/F#
Cause there’s a deep blue well when the water is so still
                 C                          G
She doesn’t play games but she can roll the dice
             D/F#
If there’s a chance she’ll take it, a rule she’ll break it
                   G
She wouldn’t think twice
 
 
[Chorus]
             C
She’s an old soul
                     G
She’s got mud on her shoes
                    D/F#
She knows about the messed up crying
                                 G
Broken hearted low down midnight blues
              C
On every dark road
       G
She’s paid the toll
               D/F#
She’s got your number for sure
      D/F#
Don’t mess with her
             G
She’s an old soul
               D/F#
She’s got your number for sure
      D/F#
Don’t mess with her
             G
She’s an old soul
 
[Outro]
C   G    D/F#        G  C   G
