Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
In the sixties [G]I wrote about
four hundred songs
Before anybody
even paid any attention
And they,
they fit into two categories
They were my, my protest songs
Which, I was known as Gaypin Chapin
in those days

[Verse 2]
And uh, in my, [G]my protest songs
had the implications behind them
If only the world was as truly wonderful as
I am
There'd be no problems and somehow these didn't
go over very well

[Verse 3]
And then I had my cool, macho stud ballads
[G]
These were songs rather
Disparately intended to get someone of the opposite
sex
Horizontal for an
extended period of time with me

[Verse 4]
And [G]uh, I will demonstrate
Why you never heard of me in the sixties
Alright, this is one verse
of one song of that
The cool, macho stud period, [D]okay[G][D][G]
[D]I've had[G] pretty wom[D]en in my [G]days

[Verse 5]
Yeah, those long haired beauties
Simply rained in my way

[Verse 6]
I treat 'em right and [G]they
just love me more
And when they gave me trouble
I just show them the door

[Verse 7]
I'm a dirty old [G]man and I don't
give a damn
Where were you guys during the sixties,
man
I needed you
