OLD DAN COTTON (Chuck Girard)
D G
I remember old Dan Cotton, so old that he'd forgotten
Em7 Asus A7 D
Just how long he'd been floatin' through this life
D
He said that he'd fought against the Indians
G
And his daddy was an old line trapper
Em Asus A7 D
And he thinks that once or twice, he'd had a wife
D
I used to go down by the river after school
G
When old Dan was relaxin' with a fishpole
Em Asus A7 D
And I'd ask him what he could offer a young, young boy
D G
Dan would start reminiscin' and sharin' his words of wisdom
Em7 Asus A7 D
And I remember I used to listen to him with joy
D
Old Dan, somethin' happenin' to you
G
Yes, old Dan, somethin' happenin' to you
Em7 Asus A7 D
I hope that you finally find what you're lookin' for
D
Old Dan, somethin' happenin' to you
G
Yes, old Dan, somethin' happenin' to you
Em Asus A7 D
I hope that you finally find what you're lookin' for
D
Then one day we couldn't find old Dan
G
And for a while he didn't come around
Em7 Asus A7 D
And I heard from the folks that he'd gone to the hills alone
D
Well I admit I was a little bit worried
G
Because Dan was so old and just a little foolhardy
Em Asus A7 D D7
But I knew in my heart that he'd soon be a comin' back home
G
Old Dan, somethin' happenin' to you
D/F#
Yes, old Dan, somethin' happenin' to you
Em Asus A7 D D7
I hope that you finally find what you're lookin' for
G
Old Dan, somethin' happenin' to you
D/F#
Yes, old Dan, somethin' happenin' to you
Em Asus A7 D
I hope that you finally find what you're lookin' for
D
Then came the message from old Doc Jones
G
That Dan's time had finally come
Em7 Asus A7 D
So I rushed to his side in the shack that he called home
D
Inside my heart I was feelin' so sad
G
But when I looked into that old man's eyes
Em7 Asus A7 D
I felt such a peace 'cause I knew that he was goin' home
D
He couldn't really speak 'cause he was now so weak
G
But he managed a tiny smile
Em Asus
And in a glance I knew that he'd found
A7 D
What he was lookin' for
D
I knew what he'd found in the woods that day
G
'Cause when I looked at him the very last time
Em Asus A7 D D7
I looked into the face of a man who had found the Lord
G
Old Dan, somethin' happened to you
D/F#
Yes, old Dan, somethin' happened to you
Em Asus A7 D
I know that you finally found what you're lookin' for
G
Old Dan, somethin' happened to you
D/F#
Yes, old Dan, somethin' happened to you
Em A7
You're still the old Dan that I love, but you're somethin'
