Ode To Age

Afinação: E A D G B ECapotraste: 3rd traste John Curran - Ode To Age [Intro] C G Em A D G [Verse 1] G C G Sometimes I sit and I wonder, of days so long ago, C G Em A D When every man was challenged by, a world unlike our own. G C G Some men chose to stay at home, and slave on land and sea, C G Em A D While others left for months on end, just to make ends meet. G C G And every time one goes for good, and leaves an empty stage, C G Em A D G I fill my glass with something strong, and drink an ode to age. [Verse 2] G C G I stroll around the roads at home, as many of them did, C G Em A D Their old square tall two stories, are disappearing quick. G C G I look for familiar faces and times that are no more, C G Em A D Landmarks change day by day as the waves wash on our shore. G C G But memories will stay the same, no matter what the page, C G Em A D G So, fill your class with something strong, and drink an ode to age. [Verse 3] G C G Some are very dear to me, some just very dear, C G Em A D Some are more than friends, you see I miss em more each year. G C G The hunter and the gentlemen, the storyteller too, C G Em A D Sometimes I wish this world of ours, just couldn't be so cruel. G C G But stand up tall and realize, that everything must change C G Em A D G And fill your glass with something strong, and drink an ode to age. G C G C G Em A D G C G C G Em A D G [Verse 4] G C G Many times, I've worn a smile. Sometimes, I have cried. C G Em A D Ther've been parties, all night long.Cause that's how we survived. G C G I still hear, her hearty laugh. I can't mistake his grin. C G Em A D Holding hands through suppertime. `Til that old storm door's hooked in. G C G When someone blows the candles out, the past appears like haze C G Em A D G So fill your glass with something strong, and drink an ode to age. C G Em A D G Yes, fill your glass with something strong.....and drink an ode to age. Lyrics and music to match: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lzi-8uhFpCw
