Much too Young – Damn Old

 
[Intro] - - - [C] [Dm] [G] [F] [C] [G] - - - [C] [Dm] [G] [F] [C] [G]
 
[Verse 1] - - - [C] This old highway's getting [Dm] longer
[G] Seems there [F] ain't no end in [C] sight [G] 
[C] To sleep would be best
But I just [Dm] can't afford the rest
[G] I gotta ride in [F] Denver tomorrow [C] night [G]  
 
[Verse 2] - - - [C] I called the house, but no one [Dm] answered
[G] For the last two [F] weeks no one's been [C] home [G] 
[C] I guess she's through with me
To tell the [Dm] truth, I just can't see
What's [G] kept a woman [F] holding on this [C] long 
 
{ CHORUS } - - - And the [F] white line's getting longer
And the [C] saddle's getting [Am] cold
Now I'm [F] much too young to [G] feel this damn [C] old
All my [F] cards are on the table with no [C] ace left in the [Am] hole
I'm [F] much too [G] young to [G] feel this damn [C] old

[C] [C] [Dm] [Dm] [G] [F] [C] [G]
[C] [C] [Dm] [Dm] [G] [F] [C] [G]
 
[Verse 3] - - - 
The [C] competition's getting [Dm] younger
Tougher [G] broncs, you [F] know I can't [C] recall [G] 
A worn out [C] tape of Chris LeDoux
Lonely [Dm] women and bad booze
Seem to [G] be the only [F] friends I've left at [C] all. 
 
{ CHORUS } 
Lord, I'm [F] much too young to [G] feel this damn [C] old
