Don't Be Ashamed Of Your Age :
John Prine
Standard Songs for Average People
Chords tabbed by:  Verne Garrison
Banjo tuned E, Key of D, Capo 1
Don't Be Ashamed of Your Age
   D                      A
Don't be ashamed of your age.
                            D
Don't let the years get you down.
                   G
That old gang you knew
                    D
They still think of you
     E7                   A
As a rounder in your old hometown.
     D                        A
Don't mind the grey in your hair.
Just think of all the fun you've had
             D
Puttin' it there.
   D
As for that old book of time
                        A
You've never skipped a page
              A        D     G
So don't be ashamed of your age, brother,
 D             A           D
Don't be ashamed of your age.
    D                  A
Listen, Mr. Smith, Mr. Brown,
                          D
Don't let your age get you down.
            G
Life ain't begun
                D
Until you're 40, son.
        E7                            A
That's when you really start to go to town.
  D                         A
Don't wish that you were a lad.
Why, boy, you've lost more gals
                  D
Than they've ever had
                A             D     G
So don't be ashamed of your age, brother.
  D         A           D
Don't be ashamed of your age.
