Less Wise Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
Time [Am]is gold and it only goes [F]by in
waves of stranger[C]s
[G]Along the way sometimes
strangers make [C]your friends
Well, [G]I'm gettin' [Am]old and my
Friends don't [F]come around
like they [C]used to
We've stopped [G]actin' like we've
[F]got somethin' to [C]prove
My old friend [Am]jake, yeah man,

[Verse 2]
we made some [F]noise in [C]those barrooms
Who'd have [G]thought he'd be
the [F]first one with a [C]son
And I like [Am]to think that guy
[F]we all [C]call mckinney
He was [G]there at my worst [Am]and lord
[F]knows he's helped me [C]on

[Verse 3]
It's been a [Am]few years since I
seen [F]that matthews [Am]boy[C]
He's still liv[G]in' down in houston,
[F]Still never call him back when [C]I phone
Every [Am]now and then I'll stop and
I'll [F]have a few with [C]vinny
You know we laugh [G]about the old times, at
[F]least [G]those we [C]recall

[Verse 4]
[C]It's always [F]c'e[Am]st la [G]vi,
[F]try not to miss [Am]the forest for [G]the trees
[F]And now we're what we [Am]did
not think we'd [G]be
A little bit older[F],
[Am]a little less wise[G]
[Am]You get a little [F]older[Am]
and a lot less [G]wise

[Verse 5]
Time is [Am]gold and it only [F]goes by
in waves of [C]strangers

[Outro 1]
[C][Am][G]
