  			G                                                     D 
Now I've got a couple more years on you babe & that's all 
                                              G 
I've had more chances to fly & more places to fall 
 
It's not that I'm wiser it's just that I've spent 
                              C 
More time with my back to the wall 
          D                                                   G 
And I've picked up a couple a more years on you babe & that's all 
 
 
Now I've walked a couple more roads than you babe & that's all 
And I'm tired of running while you're only learning to crawl 
And you're going somewhere but I've been to somewhere 
And found it was nowhere at all 
And I picked up a couple more years on you babe & that's all 
 
break....    G   D   G 
 
Sayin' goodbye girl don't ever come easy at all 
But you got to fly cause you're hearin' them young eagles call 
Someday when you're older  
You'll smile at a man strong & told 
And say I got a couple more years on you babe & that's all 
 
You'll say 
 
repeat 1st verse......
