[Intro]
 
C G/B Am7 Dm7 G
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
C             G/B Am7
Take it from an old man
Dm7                     G
Times just sand slippin’ past
C                   G/B Am7
We wanna hold it in our hands
Dm7                   G
But no one ever sees what falls through the cracks
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
C               G/B Am7
Take it from an old man
Dm7               G
My mistakes have made me
C           G/B Am7
And i am what i am
 
 
[Chorus]
          Dm7                  E7
And though i don't believe in silver linings
Am                              F
I believe there's something in you
C                                 E7
Something good is trying to break through
Am                                F
 You might have to fight the good fight
              D7                 F
And when you think you can't you can
G                   C
Take it from an old man
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
C              G/B Am7
Take it from an old man
Dm7                         G
The days don't stretch any longer
C                   G/B Am7
They've left tracks upon my skin
Dm7                   E7
But i reckon made me stronger
Am                                 F
But I believe there's something in you
C                              E7
Something you should be seeing to
Am                                  F
Bet it all on yourself at least one time
            D7        F           G         Am F C E7
Cause honey win or lose it's one hell of a ride
 
 
[Chorus]
 
Am                                   F
And if you lack the strength of your own
D7                   F
Honey hold out your hands
G                       C
And take it from an old man

i think instead of G/B should be an E7 chord , for it sound better but it's only my opinion , great tab anyway :)
