Been around for eighty summers, some were winners and some were bummmers, I loved them all. 
G                                                  C
Once I was young and full of fun like you, I had a million dreams and some came true, 
C         G           G  C  G
You can't win 'em all.

CHORUS:
        D                                   Am       G/B             C 
Now I'm old and tired, bent and busted, and grey and wrinkled and I can't be trusted. 
G                    G  C  G
Just a dirty old man.

   G                                    C
As I look back on the younger years, I shared your hopes and I shared your fears, 
      G               G  C  G
Yes I made that scene.
G                                 C
My parents never understood and I guess that I felt that they never would, 
    G               G  C  G  
You know what I mean.

CHORUS:
        D                                   Am       G/B             C 
Now I'm old and tired, bent and busted, and grey and wrinkled and I can't be trusted. 
G                    G  C  G
Just a dirty old man.


G                                                 C                      
Well, I've done some livin' in this life of mine,I've laughed and loved in the summertime, 
     G             G  C  G 
I remember it well.
G                                                 C
There was lips to kiss, and hands to hold. and I never thought I would get very old
    G         G  C  G
But here I am. 

CHORUS:
        D                                   Am       G/B             C 
Now I'm old and tired, bent and busted, and grey and wrinkled and I can't be trusted. 
G                    G  C  G
Just a dirty old man.

G                                               C
But you, you wait fifty years or so, you'll be standing on the corner with no place to go, 
     G              G  C  G
Just lookin' around, 
       G
And if some young folks should pass you by, 
      C                                               G           G  C  G
Don't say 'hello', don't even wave 'hi', they'll only put you down.

CHORUS:
        D                                             Am       G/B             C 
Because you're old and tired, bent and busted, you're grey and wrinkled and  can't be trusted. 
G                    G  C  G
Just a dirty old man.
