The Older I Get chords by Alan Jackson

Chords with lyrics

D,G,A,D

Verse 1:
D MajorD
The older I get
      G+G
The more I think
     A augmentedA
You only get a minute, better live while you're in it
          D MajorD
'Cause it's gone in a blink

And the older I get
      G+G
The truer it is
            A augmentedA
It's the people you love, not the money and stuff
        D MajorD
That makes you rich

Chorus:
       G+G          D MajorD
And if they found a fountain of youth
            A augmentedA         D MajorD
I wouldn't drink a drop and tha's the truth
    G+G               D MajorD         A augmentedA
Funny how it feels I'm just getting to my best years yet


Verse 2:
       D MajorD
The older I get
           G+G
The fewer friends I have
           A augmentedA
But you don't need a lot when the ones that you got
            D MajorD
Have always got your back

And the older I get
       G+G
The better I am
           A augmentedA
At knowing when to give
               D MajorD
And when to just not give a damn


Chorus:
       G+G          D MajorD
And if they found a fountain of youth
           A augmentedA         D MajorD
I wouldn't drink a drop and that's the truth
    G+G              D MajorD         A augmentedA
Funny how it feels I'm just getting to my best years yet
      D MajorD
The older I get

Instrumental:


Bridge:
       G+G       D MajorD
And I don't mind all the lines
       A augmentedA           D MajorD
From all the times I've laughed and cried
    G+G        D MajorD           A augmentedA
Souvenirs and little signs of the life I've lived


Verse 3:
       D MajorD
The older I get
       G+G
The longer I pray
         D MajorD    A augmentedA
I don't know why, I guess that I
      D MajorD
Got more to say

And the older I get
         G+G
The more thankful I feel
           A augmentedA               D MajorD
