[Verse]
[N.C.]
My old dad went a walkin' one day,
D
Pushing tall weeds right outta his way
[N.C.]
My old dad went a walkin' one day
D
Hey now, hey now


[Verse]
[N.C.]
Corduroy pants and an old plaid shirt
D
Daddy went a walkin' just to feel the earth
[N.C.]
Got a little dirty but that's all right
D
Hey now, hey now


[Chorus]
Em       Em  Em/F# Em/G  A
 Old man crossin'  the   road
A      G/B A7/C# D
You've got to    let him go
Em       Em  Em/F# Em/G  A
 Old man crossin'  the   road
A    G/B A7/C# D
He's fee-lin'  fine

[Verse]
D
Daddy went a ridin' in his old car
D
Took the dog with him 'cause it ain't too far
D
Daddy went ridin' in his old car
D
Hey now, hey now


[Verse]
D
Brown leather boots and an old straw hat
D
Daddy's getting wood with the barnyard cat
D
Got a little dirty but that's all right
D
Hey now, hey now


[Chorus]
Em       Em  Em/F# Em/G  A
 Old man crossin'  the   road
A      G/B A7/C# D
You've got to    let him go
Em       Em  Em/F# Em/G  A
 Old man crossin'  the   road
A    G/B A7/C# D
He's fee-lin'  fine

[Middle 8]
D              Dmaj7              G     Gmaj7
 Mama's waiting at the top of the hill
A                    A                       G
 They'll be laughing, oh the stories they'll tell ...
D                 Dmaj7         G     Gmaj7
 When he holds her in his arms again,
A                      A                   G  A
 They'll be sweethearts with time on their hands
