Capo: 3rd fret

INTRO:
G D Cadd9 Cadd9 D

VERSE
G D
Old man with a suitcase at an old run down bus stop
Cadd9 D
Dressed to the nines in a suit and tie, holding a rose with a card stock
G D
I asked him where he was going, he said just a mile from here
Cadd9 D
There’s a brunette beauty who’s had my heart for more than 50 years

PRE-CHORUS:
Em
Astonished at the thought
D
That a love could last that long
Cadd9
I asked him how he did it
D D
And the words he spoke were strong

CHORUS:
D
He said
G D
I found that time don’t stop and every road has an end
Em D Cadd9
And age brings rust to old Ford trucks and grey hair to every man

G D B
No matter how old I am, I swear on Father Time

Em D Cadd9
I’ll love her long as the moon and stars hang in those southern skies
Em D Cadd9
Yeah pictures fade, fires burn out, weekends never stick around
Em D Cadd9
You can’t stop time and age ain’t kind to old Ford trucks

G D
But hearts don’t rust

VERSE:
G D
It really hit me hard, stopped me in my tracks
Cadd9 D
Got me thinkin’ ‘bout my life, how I need to love like that
G D
I said, man, there’s no need waiting, just hop up in my truck
Cadd9 D
And I’ll take you where you’re headed, figure you’ve waited long enough

PRE-CHORUS:
Em
When we pulled up to the spot
D
I couldn’t hold back my tears
Cadd9
‘Cause that brunette beauty he loved so long
D
Had been gone for twenty years

Em D
And as I walked through the door tonight
Cadd9 G
I pulled her close and held her tight
Am7 G Cadd9 D D
And told her that I love her like I never have before

CHORUS:
D
I said
G D
I found that time don’t stop and every road has an end
Em7 D Cadd9
And age brings rust to old Ford trucks and grey hair to every man

G D B
No matter how old I am, I swear on Father Time

Em D Cadd9
I’ll love her long as the moon and stars hang in those southern skies
Em D Cadd9
Pictures fade, fires burn out, weekends never stick around
Em D Cadd9
You can’t stop time and age ain’t kind to old Ford trucks

Em Em Cadd9
But hearts don’t ruuuuuuuuuuuust

Em D Cadd9
You can’t stop time, and age ain’t kind to old Ford trucks
Cadd9 G D Cadd9
But hearts don’t rust

Cadd9 D G
