A7                D7            A7
I was a young man back in the 1960's
          A7
Yes, you made your own amusements then
     D7               A7
For going to the pictures


            A7        E7
Well, the travel was hard and I mean
  A7                E7
We still used the wheel
              A7                D A
But you could sit down at your table
          D7         A7
And eat a real food meal


     D              A
But hey, you young people
         D           A
Well, I just do not know
        D               A
And I can't even understand you
                      E7
When you try to talk slow


E7
There was one fellow singing in those days
And he was quite good, and I mean to say that
      D7           A7
His name was Bob Dylan, and I used to do gigs too
         D7                A7
Before I made my first million


         A7        E7
That was way, way back before
   A7                      E7
Before the wild World War Three
      A7           D  A
When England went missing
        D7              A7
And we moved to Paraguayee


     D              A
But hey, you young people
         D           A
Well, I just do not know
        D               A
And I can't even understand you
                      E7
When you try to talk slow


E7              A7         D7            A7
Well, I got a secret, and don't give us away
                                 D7         A7
I got some real food tins for my 91st birthday

           A7          E7
And your grandmother bought them
               A7                 E7
Way down in the new antique food store
         A7            D  A          D7         A7
And for beans and for bacon, I will open up my door


     D              A
But hey, you young people
         D           A
Well, I just do not know
        D               A
And I can't even understand you
                      E7
When you try to talk slow

               A7
Well, I was a young man back in the 1960's
