Corrections welcome.   tabbed 6/2/05
NOTE: 7th chords optional; I like the sound, but I don't think he actually plays them in 
the recording.


INTRO: A


A                                                        E
Now I've got a couple more years on you babe and that's all
                                        E7       A
I've had more chances to fly and more places to fall
                                                        A7                      D
It's not that I'm wiser it's just that I've spent more time with my back to the wall
          E                                                   A
And I've picked up a couple more years on you babe and that's all


Now I've walked a couple more roads than you babe and that's all
And I'm tired of running while you're only learning to crawl
And you're going somewhere but I've been to somewhere and found it was nowhere at all
And I've picked up a couple more years on you babe and that's all


BREAK (A  E  A)


Sayin' goodbye girl don't ever come easy at all
But you gotta fly 'cause you're hearin' them young eagles call
Someday when you're older you'll smile at a man strong and tall
And say I've got a couple more years on you babe and that's all, you'll say


I've got a couple more years on you babe and that's all
I've had more chances to fly and more places to fall
It's not that I'm wiser it's just that I've spent more time with my back to the wall
And picked up a couple more years on you babe and that's all
