The old songs chords and lyrics - HUGH MOFFATT

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[D]Have you ever tried helping somebody?
Have you ever tried lending a [A]hand?
Just to have them turn on you with hatred
You know that you don't understand
[D]Well, it puts me in mind of old
Nero
Fiddlin' with a roam, burnin' [G]down
I wonder if he played the [D]old songs
And if [A]the roamer's prepared
for the [D]sound
Let's sing the [G]old songs
Let's sing [D]the blues
Let's sing the [A]good songs, just like we [D]used to I'd rather be [G]crazy,
I don't wanna be [D]blue
I'll sing the [A]old songs,
and I'll look brand [D]new
It's hard to be happy on
Main
Street, it takes both crazy and [A]sad,
when the wind burns your
face like a fever,
and the marks keep on passing you [D]by.
Show me a wine of winter
And I'll show you a vision of [G]grace
Kept alive by the spirit in[D]side him
Kept [A]warm by the wind in his [D]face
Singin' [G]the old song
Singin' [D]the new
Let's sing the [A]good songs, just like we [D]used to I'd rather be [G]crazy,
I don't wanna be [D]blue
I'll sing the [A]old songs,
I'll make them brand [D]new[G][A][D]
Well, the old songs don't
sing like the used to
The new songs don't sing like the [A]old
Seems nobody sings like they like to
But everyone sings for the [D]good
I want to sing for the lovin' I'll
sing for the [G]loneliness, too
[D]Come on,[G] let's all sing together[D]
[A]Sometimes it's all we can [D]do
Let's sing the [G]old song
Let's sing [D]the new
Let's sing the [A]good songs,
just like we [D]like to
I'd rather be [G]crazy,
I don't want to [D]be blue
I'll sing the [A]old songs,
and I'll make them brand [D]new
[G]Let's sing the [A]old songs,
we'll make them brand [D]new.
