Grow Old With Me - Mason Jennings Chords
Chords: D., D, Amaj7, Em, A
More chords by Mason Jennings
Genre: folk, acoustic, singer-songwriter
As with all Mason I'm familiar with, all strings are dropped one half step.
In
addition, drop the 6th string another step like drop D tuning. You'll end up
with
C#/G#/C#/F#/A#/D#. Finally, capo on 2nd fret.
The D and E minor chords use all six strings, striking 6th string first as a
base note
and then striking the higher note strings in a sort of down down up up down
up pattern
where the first two down strikes are the base note. When you play the E
minor chord,
add your index finger to the second fret of the 6th string to round it out
since you're in
drop D.
I think there's also a little flourish of some sort on the D chords in the
chorus, but I
can't figure out what it is. Listen to the song and let me know if you get
it. This
is my first tab, so any feedback is appreciated. All the best!
D
I met a man who was not quite an old man
Amaj7
Said he was an old boy
D
I would make a toast to believe and bet you
Amaj7
That I would be the same old man
D
Not the kind with a lost soul
Amaj7
Who can't put down his toys
D
Honey there'll be absolute peace in my heart
Amaj7
And resolution in my soul
Em A D
So don't, don't, darlin' don't be surprised
Em A D
When I don't leave your side
Em
'Cause there's not a single part of my love
A D
That you should not believe
Em
I hope when I grow old
A D
That you grow old with me
D
I begged the pardon of the fullness of somebodies
Amaj7
Because I love the left lane
