[Intro]

[Verse 1]
E
Don't let the old man in,
A
I wanna leave this alone
B7
Can't leave it up to him,
E
He's knocking on my door
[Verse 2]
E
And I knew all of my life,
A
that someday it would end
B7
Get up and go outside,
E
Don't let the old man in
[Bridge]
A
Many moons I have lived
E
My body's weathered and worn
F#
Ask yourself how old you'd be
B7
If you didn't know the day you were born
[Verse 3]
E
Try to love on your wife
A
And stay close to your friends
B7
Toast each sundown with wine
E
Don't let the old man in

[Bridge]
A
Many moons I have lived
E
My body's weathered and worn
F#
Ask yourself how old you'd be
B7
If you didn't know the day you were born
[Verse 4]
E
When he rides up on his horse
A
And you feel that cold bitter wind
B7
Look out your window and smile
E
Don't let the old man in
[Outro]
B7
Look out your window and smile
E
Don't let the old man in...
