Standard Songs for Average People
Banjo tuned E, Key of D, Capo 1
Don't Be Ashamed of Your Age
Don[D]'t be ashamed of your a[A]ge.
Don't let the years get you [D]down.
That old gang you k[G]new
They still think of [D]you
As a [E7]rounder in your old h[A]ometown.
Don't[D] mind the grey in your ha[A]ir.
Just think of all the fun you've had
Puttin' it th[D]ere.
As [D]for that old book of time
You've never skipped a p[A]age
So don't be as[A]hamed of [D]your a[G]ge, brother,
D[D]on't be ashame[A]d of your ag[D]e.
Instrumental:
List[D]en, Mr. Smith, Mr. [A]Brown,
Don't let your age get you[D] down.
Life ain't b[G]egun
Until you're 40,[D] son.
That's w[E7]hen you really start to go to [A]town.
Do[D]n't wish that you were a l[A]ad.
Why, boy, you've lost more gals
Than they've ever [D]had
So don't be asha[A]med of your ag[D]e, bro[G]ther.
Do[D]n't be ash[A]amed of your[D] age.
