[Verse 1]

G                  D     Am                      E
When I look in the mirror I can't believe what I see
G                   D         Am               E
Tell me, who's that funky dude starin' back at me?
G              D   Am              E
Broken, beaten down can't even get around
G                  D    Am                 E
without an old-man cane I fall and hit the ground
G                D     Am             B7
Shivering in the cold, I'm bitter and alone

[Verse 2]

G          D          Am          E
Excuse the bitchin' - I shouldn't complain
G                D        Am              E
I should have no feeling, 'cuz feeling is pain
G               D       Am     E
As everything I need is denied me
G                D       Am              E
And everything I want is taken away from me
G                   D      Am         B7 (quick transistion)
But who do I got to blame? Nobody but me

[Chorus]

B7                 C
I don't wanna be a old man anymore

D                             G                Em
It's been a year or two since I was out on the floor
Em                    Am                 D
Shakin' booty, makin' sweet love all the night
D               G                Em
It's time I got back to the good life
Em              Am7                   D
It's time I got back, it's time I got back
D               G                      Em
'n I don't even know how I got off the track
Em          Am       D
I wanna go back, yeah!

[Verse 3]

G                     D      Am              E
Screw this crap, I've had it! I ain't no Mr. cool
G               D    Am                 E
I'm a pig, I'm a dog, so 'scuse me if I drool
G                  D       Am                  E
I ain't gonna hurt nobody, ain't gonna cause a scene
G              D            Am          E
I just need to admit I want sugar in my tea
G            D           Am           B7
Hear me? Hear me? I want sugar in my tea!

[Chorus]

B7                 C
I don't wanna be a old man anymore
D                             G                Em
It's been a year or two since I was out on the floor
Em                    Am                 D
Shakin' booty, makin' sweet love all the night
D               G                Em
It's time I got back to the good life
Em              Am                    D
It's time I got back, it's time I got back
D               G                      Em
'n I don't even know how I got off the track
Em         Am        D
I wanna go back, yeah!
