I met my (F)old

she (F)seemed so glad to (Edim)see me, I just (A7)smiled.

(Db7)And we (Cm7)talked a bout some (F7)old times and we (Bb)drank per our selves some (Bdim)beers.

Still (F)cra zy af ter (C7)all

these (Dm)years;

(Bdim7)oh,

still (F)cra zy af ter (C7)all

these (Bbm7)years.

I’m not the (F)kind

of (F7)man who tends to (Bb)so cial ize:

I (F)seem to lean on (Edim)old fa mil iar (A7)ways.

(Db7)And I (Cm7)ain’t no fool for (F7)love songs and that (Bb)whis per in my some (Bdim)ears.

Still (F)cra zy af ter (C7)all

these (Dm)years;

(Bdim7)oh,

still (F)cra zy af ter (C7)all

these (Bbm7)years.
