[Verse 1]
Gsus2                  D/F#           Csus2                Em7
 A young kid stepped in from the cold, he ordered up a drink
Csus2                 G/B                Am                   D Dsus4 D
 He said don't look surprised old man I'm older than you think
Gsus2        D/F#                 Csus2                  Em7
 If I was the talkin' kind I could tell you a thing or two
Csus2                G/B         Am       D    Gsus2 G/B
 And since you didn't ask, let me show you my tattoos


[Chorus 1]
          Csus2            G/B             D                   Gsus2
 He said I got this rose in Memphis in some back old alley dump
            Csus2       G/B           Am                     D Dsus4 D
 Picked this eagle up in Dallas, man I sure was good and drunk
Gsus2                  D/F#          Csus2              G/B
 And you know the way I see it, if it gets any worse out there
Csus2         D                   Gsus2   G/B Gsus2 G/B
 A guy like me hasn't got a prayer


[Verse 2]
    Gsus2               D/F#       Csus2              Em7
 The old man poured some coffee, he said this one's on me
Csus2        G/B       Am                       D Dsus4 D
 Sat down his cigarette and rolled up his sleeve
Gsus2            D/F#            Csus2              Em7
 Take a good look here my friend, you see what these are
Csus2          G/B            Am   D   Gsus2  G/B
 Just my ragged old and jagged ordinary scars


[Chorus 2]
          Csus2           G/B        D                       Gsus2
 He said I got this one in Paris in a war 'fore you were born
         Csus2          Gsus2                 Am            D Dsus4 D
 And this one when I was half your age workin' on my daddy's farm
Gsus2                  D/F#            Csus2                   G/B
 And you know the way I see it, son you ain't seen what I've seen
Csus2             D                          Gsus2 D/F# Csus2 G/B Csus2 G/B Gsus2 G/B
 Cause tattoos and scars are different things


[Bridge]
        Csus2              G/B                  D                  Gsus2
 He said I've been here for all these years, and what I know is this
       Csus2                 G/B         Am                  D Dsus4 D
 If you look and listen close, a man will show you what he is
Gsus2              G/B                  Csus2                  G/B
 You know the way I see it, you've been 'round but you're still green
Csus2             D                   Gsus2  G/B 
 Cause tattoos and scars are different things


[Tag]
Gsus2                  D/F#           Csus2                 G/B
 A young kid stepped in from the cold, he ordered up a drink
Csus2                 G/B                Am                   Gsus2 G/B Gsus2 G/B Gsus2
 He said don't look surprised old man I'm older than you think
