Re: old age and drinking

hey Mojo, enjoyed it, reminds me somewhat of the folk songs in the YMCA back in the sixties, and a good time was had by all.
this may sound strange but i drink only a pint or two a week since the lock down where i used to drink a lot LOT more.     

Ask not what Chordie can do for you, but what you can do for Chordie.

as requested  may be a couple more verses later , have some in the works


G                 C                   D                G
turn out the lights before you go home
D                                          C                        G
should I call you a ride or can you drive stoned   

you can stay all night I dont care
you sleep on the floor or the easy chair

you can party all night if thats how you feel
but its getting late and ive had my fill

D                                         G
I dont get mean and I dont get loud
I dont do things that will draw a crowd
sometimes the whiskey gets to head
D                                                      C                   G
and long abut mid night you will find me in bed

back in my youth I could party all day
I could party all night hell for three or four days
now I am much older and I aint so tough
one night of drinking and I'm feeling rough
your welcome to stay you can drink my beer
but it wont be long before I disappear

chorus

act your age my mama would say
but me and the whiskey could not obey
ive slowed down now my mama would be proud
turn that music its way to loud
the years and the whiskey have taken there toll
I never thought I'd  feeling this old

chorus
