7 Years chords

[INTRO]
O[G5]nce I was seven years o[A#5]ld,

[VERSE 1]
[G5]It was a big big w[A#5]orld, but we thought we were bigger,[D#5]
Pushing each other to the limits, we were [F5]learning quicker[G5] ,
By eleven smoking h[A#5]erb and drinking burning liquor[D#5] ,
Never rich so we were out to make that [F5]steady figure,[G5]
I always had that dre[A#5]am, like my daddy before me[D#5] ,
So I started writing songs, I started w[F5]riting stories[G5] ,
Something about that glory [A#5]just always seemed to bore m[D#5]e,
'Cause only those I really love will ever [F5]really know m[G5]e, [F5]

[CHORUS]
O[D#5]nce I was seven y[F5]ears o[G5]ld, my daddy told m[F5]e,
"Go make yourself some fr[A#5/D]iends or you'll be lonely."
O[D#5]nce I was seven y[F5]ears o[G5]ld, (s[F5]even years old)
O[D#5]nce I was twenty y[F5]ears o[G5]ld, my story got t[F5]old,
Before the morning s[A#5/D]un, when life was lonely,
O[D#5]nce I was twent[F5]y years o[G5]ld, (t[F5]wenty years old)

[VERSE 2]
[G5]I only see my g[A#5]oals, I don't believe in failure[D#5] ,
'Cause I know the smallest voices, they can m[F5]ake it majo[G5]r,
I got my boys with me[A#5] , at least those in favor[D#5] ,
And if we don't meet before I leave, I hope I'll s[F5]ee you later, [G5] [F5]

[CHORUS]
O[D#5]nce I was twenty y[F5]ears o[G5]ld, my story got t[F5]old,
I was writing about everyt[A#5/D]hing I saw before me,
O[D#5]nce I was twenty y[F5]ears o[G5]ld, (t[F5]wenty years old)
S[D#5]oon we'll be thirty y[F5]ears o[G5]ld, our songs have been s[F5]old,
We've traveled around the w[A#5/D]orld and we're still roaming,
S[D#5]oon we'll be thirty y[F5]ears [G5]old, ([F5]thirty years old)

[Breakdown]
I[G5]'m still learning about l[A#5]ife,
My woman brought children for me[D#5] ,

So I can sing them all my songs,
And I can t[F5]ell them stories[G5] ,

Most of my boys are with me,
S[A#5]ome are still out seeking glor[D#5]y,

And some I had to leave behind,
(short mute)
My brother, I'm still sorry,

[CODA]
S[D#5]oon I'll be sixty y[F5]ears o[G5]ld, my daddy got sixty-o[F5]ne,
Remember life, and then your l[A#5/D]ife becomes a better one,
I[D#5] made a man so happy w[F5]hen I wrote a l[G5]etter once,[D5]

I hope my children come and visit once or twice a month,
S[D#5]oon I'll be sixty y[F5]ears o[G5]ld, will I think the world is c[F5]old,
Or will I have a lot of c[A#5/D]hildren who can warm me?
S[D#5]oon I'll be sixty y[F5]ears o[G5]ld, (s[F5]ixty years old)
S[D#5]oon I'll be sixty y[F5]ears o[G5]ld, will I think the world is c[F5]old,
Or will I have a lot of c[A#5/D]hildren who can warm me?
S[D#5]oon I'll be sixty[F5] years o[G5]ld, (s[F5]ixty years old)
