The Older I Get the Better I Used To Be
By Norm Stinson
[Capo on 3rd fret)
Verse 1:
E A
When I was young I could climb any tree I could run like the wind through the leaves.
B E
I’d swim like a fish and jump like a frog. I could split any log.
E A
The women I’ve loved and the hearts that I took. I left a scar on their young hearts I broke.
B E
So many sad songs have been written about The broken hearts of the girls as they pout.
Chorus:
A E A B
The older I get the better I used to be. Years have taken their toll on me.
E A
I used to jump off rocks into water so deep I could fish like a bear in the canyons so steep
B E B7
Now I just surf the net and watch TV The older I get, the better I used to be.
Verse 2:
Now that I’m older I still do believe There’s nothing that I can’t achieve.
But just as I try doing something extreme Reality hits me and I’m knocked to my knees.
The broken bones don’t heal as fast. But when I was young I never fell on my ass
You hear my stories you better believe The older I get, the better I used to be
Chorus:
A E A B
The older I get the better I used to be. Years have taken their toll on me.
E A
I used to jump off rocks into water so deep I could fish like a bear in the canyons so steep
B E B7
Now I just surf the net and watch TV The older I get, the better I used to be.
