[ch]C[/ch]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]              [ch]G[/ch]\r\nMy father died a year ago today.[/tab]\r\n[tab]    [ch]Am[/ch]              [ch]Am/G[/ch]              [ch]F[/ch]\r\nThe rooster started crowing when they carried Dad away.[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]                              [ch]Am[/ch]\r\nThere beside my mother, in the living room, I stood,[/tab]\r\n[tab]        [ch]Dm7[/ch]                             [ch]G[/ch]\r\nWith my brothers and my sister, knowing Dad was gone for good.[/tab]\r\n[tab]      [ch]C[/ch]\r\nWell, I hung around just long enough,[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nTo lay him in the ground and then I,[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch]                [ch]Am/G[/ch]         [ch]F[/ch]\r\nCaught a plane to do a show up north in Detroit town.[/tab]\r\n[tab]            [ch]C[/ch]         [ch]G[/ch]                          [ch]C[/ch]\r\nBecause I'm older now and I ain't got no time to cry.[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab]     [ch]F[/ch]                              [ch]G[/ch]\r\nI've got no time to look back, I've got no time to see,[/tab]\r\n[tab]    [ch]C[/ch]                            [ch]F[/ch]\r\nThe pieces of my heart that have been ripped away from me.[/tab]\r\n[tab]           [ch]Am[/ch]                             [ch]F[/ch]\r\nAnd if the feeling starts to coming, I've learned to stop 'em fast.[/tab]\r\n[tab]       [ch]Dm7[/ch]                                 [ch]G[/ch]\r\n`Cause I don't know, if I let 'em go, they might not wanna pass.[/tab]\r\n[tab]                 [ch]C[/ch]              [ch]G[/ch]\r\nAnd there's just so many people trying to get me on the phone.[/tab]\r\n[tab]            [ch]Am[/ch]                [ch]Am/G[/ch]\r\nAnd there's bills to pay, and songs to play,[/tab]\r\n[tab]      [ch]F[/ch]\r\nAnd a house to make a home.[/tab]\r\n[tab]            [ch]C[/ch]         [ch]G[/ch]                          [ch]C[/ch]\r\nI guess I'm older now and I ain't got no time to cry.[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]                    [ch]G[/ch]\r\nI can still remember before I heard of Merle.[/tab]\r\n[tab]   [ch]Am[/ch]               [ch]Am/G[/ch]       [ch]F[/ch]\r\nSo many things have changed so much here in my

                     [ch]G[/ch]\r\nAnd just listening to those sirens I would breakdown and cry.[/tab]\r\n[tab]            [ch]C[/ch]\r\nBut now I'm walking and I'm talking,[/tab]\r\n[tab]           [ch]G[/ch]\r\nDoing just what I'm supposed to do.[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch]           [ch]Am/G[/ch]              [ch]F[/ch]\r\nWorking over time to make sure I don't come unglued.[/tab]\r\n[tab]            [ch]C[/ch]             [ch]G[/ch]\r\nI guess I'm older now and I ain't got no time to cry.[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab]     [ch]F[/ch]                              [ch]G[/ch]\r\nI've got no time to look
