Come On Sixty Five chords

[C]Somewhere on the old Kern River [F]there's an old cane [C]pole

That waits for [G7]me patient[C]ly this city job might drag me down

But [F]one fine day I'm [C]gonna be set [G7]free wait and [C]see

And [F]then I'm gonna go down to where the [C]waters touch the sky

[F]Where the old men's laughter [C]goes like a lulla[G7]by


Sixty [C]five [F]c'mon sixty [C]five it's a sin to waste my life away

But I can't wait till [G7]I'm sixty [C]five [F]c'mon sixty [C]five

There's a gold watch if I get out [G7]alive [F]past sixty [C]five


Now somewhere in my memories [F]I recall a [C]boy

Seven[G7]teen full of [C]dreams dreams and life just stripped away

A [F]layer at a [C]time now what's [G7]left ain't hardly [C]me

Oh [F]but I saved up a little here and [C]there to get me by

[F]Enough to mend my ragged wings and [C]once again I'll [G7]fly


Sixty [C]five [F]c'mon sixty [C]five it's a sin to waste my life away
But I can't wait till [G7]I'm sixty [C]five [F]c'mon sixty [C]five
Lord the object of the games is to [G7]survive [F]past sixty [C]five

I've heard it said that hard work never [F]did a body's [C]body

Any [G7]harm well they were [C]wrong cause all these years of lifting things

I [F]should of left [C]alone took their [G7]toll my will was [C]strong

And [F]the day that I walk out of here I'll [C]hold my head up high

[F]Then I'll pawn this stupid watch and kiss [C]thirty years good[G7]bye


Sixty [C]five [F]c'mon sixty [C]five it's a sin to waste my life away

But I can't wait till [G7]I'm sixty [C]five [F]c'mon sixty [C]five

There's a gold watch if I get out [G7]alive [F]past sixty [C]five


Now somewhere on the old Kern River [F]there's an old cane [C]pole

That waits for [G7]me patient[C]ly
