This old man and
me

Were at the bar

Were having us
some beers and

Swapping I don't
cares

Talking
politics

Blonde and
red-haired chicks

Old dogs and new
tricks and

We talked about
God's grace

And all the hell
we raised

Then I heard the

What brings you
to Ohio?
A#
He said "Damned if
I know"
F
We talked an hour
or two

We pondered life
and death

He lit a
cigarette

Said "These damn
things'll kill me
yet"

But God is

I saw the old
man's face
Dm
Front page
obituary
A#
He was a
millionaire-y
F
He left his
fortune to
C
Some guy he barely
knew
Dm
His kids were mad
as hell
A#
But me, I'm doing
well
F
And I dropped by
today
C
To just say thanks
and pray
Dm
A#
And I left a
six-pack right there
on his grave
And I said
[Chorus]
F
God is great
C
Beer is good
