This works! The capo is critical.
My Old Man chords Capo 2nd fret
I D miss my old G man to D night And I D wish he was G here with D me G With his corny jokes and his cheap cigars He could look you in the eye and sell you a D car Well, that's A not an easy thing to D do But no one ever G knew a more charming creature D Upon this earth than A my old D man
He was a pilot in the G big D war in the D U.S. G Army Air D Corps G In a C-47 with a heavy load Full of combat cargo for the D Burma Road And A after they dropped the D bomb He came home G and married Mom and D Not long after that he became A my old D man
And oh the fights G we D had When my D brother and G I got him D mad G He'd get all boiled up and he'd start to shout And I knew what was coming so I D tuned him out And A now the old man's D gone And G I'd give all I own D To hear what he said when I wasn't listening to A my old D man
I D miss my old G man to D night And I can D almost G see his D face G He was always trying to watch his weight And his heart only made to fifty D eight For the A first time since he D died G Late last night I cried D I wondered when I was gonna do that for A my old D man
