[Verse 1]
[G]The[Dm][G][Dm][G][Dm][G][Dm]
[G]old man
he [Dm]catches the fish [G]in the [Dm]morning
[G]He rides the riv[Dm]er eve[G]ry day[Dm]
[G]I sit on the bank [Dm]and I
[G]holler when he [Dm]passes
[G]"Hey, old man[Dm],

[G][Dm]

[Verse 2]
[G][Dm]
[G]I wake up in [Dm]the morning,
[G]thinking 'bout my tro[Dm]ubles
I [G]go down [Gm]to the wat[Dm]er
and [G]they pass [Dm]away
And [G]when the old [Dm]man comes
a-floating [G]down down the [Dm]river
[G]"Hey, old man[Dm],

[G]It ain't hea[Dm]vy, don't tak[G]e it that way[Dm]
The [G]old man and [Dm]me,
we got a [G]good thing [Dm]goin'
[G]He catches fis[Dm]h and I s[G]it all day[Dm]
[G]He catches fis[Dm]h and I s[G]it all day[Dm]
