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
