Intro.: |(D MajorD) |(Bm/D)(A/D)| x 2
(D MajorD)He still combs his hair like Elvis, pays cash for everything
(G+G) And he'll only drive a Chevy (E minorEm)and thinks Alan (A augmentedA)Jackson's king
(D MajorD) He knows everyone by name at the local (F#F#)hardware (G+G)store
They don't (E minorEm)make 'em like (A augmentedA)that anymore (D MajorD)
(D MajorD) Up with the sun each mornin', hardly missed a day of work
(G+G) Summer 1957, (E minorEm) he helped build that (A augmentedA)Lutheran church
(D MajorD) Believes a man should work all week but save Sunday (F#F#)for the (G+G)Lord
They don't (E minorEm)make 'em like (A augmentedA)that anymore (D MajorD)
(Chorus)
Standin' (G+G) shoulder to shoulder with him (A augmentedA)now, I still feel small
And (D MajorD)I'm still lookin' (F#m/C#F#m/C#)up to him (B minorBm)like he's ten feet (A augmentedA)tall
(G+G) There's somethin' about that generation, (A augmentedA) these days I think we need 'em
(D MajorD) More than we (F#m/C#F#m/C#)ever did before,
(B minorBm) (A augmentedA) but they don't (G+G)make 'Em like (A augmentedA)that anymore (D MajorD)
(D MajorD) He married his sweet Mary June 1955
(G+G) He goes on and on about her, her (E minorEm)casseroles, her (A augmentedA)clear blue eyes
(D MajorD) He still helps her with her coat, still opens (F#F#)her car (G+G)door
They don't (E minorEm)make 'em like (A augmentedA)that anymore (D MajorD)
(Chorus)
Standin' (G+G) shoulder to shoulder with him (A augmentedA)now, I still feel small
And (D MajorD)I'm still lookin' (F#m/C#F#m/C#)up to him (B minorBm)like he's ten feet (A augmentedA)tall
(G+G) There's somethin' about that generation, (A augmentedA) these days I think we need 'em
(D MajorD) More than we (F#m/C#F#m/C#)ever did before,
(B minorBm) (A augmentedA) but they don't (G+G)make 'em like (A augmentedA)that anymore
Inst.: |(D MajorD)(C#C#)|(B minorBm)(A augmentedA)|(G+G) |(A augmentedA) |
(Chorus)
(G+G) There's somethin' about that generation, (A augmentedA) these days I think we need 'em
(D MajorD) More than we (F#m/C#F#m/C#)ever did before, (B minorBm) (A augmentedA) yeah, that's for (E minorEm)sure
But they don't (G+G)make 'em like (A augmentedA)that anymore (D MajorD)
THE END!
