Intro: C 

C              G
My father died a year ago today. 
    Am              Am/G              F
The rooster started crowing when they carried Dad away. 
C                              Am
There beside my mother, in the living room , I stood, 
        Dm7                             G
With my brothers and my sister, knowing Dad was gone for good. 
      C
Well, I hung around just long enough, 
G
To lay him in the ground and then I, 
Am                Am/G         F
Caught a plane to do a show up north in Detroit town. 
            C         G                          C
Because I'm older now and I ain't got no time to cry. 
     F                              G
I've got no time to look back, I've got no time to see, 
    C                            F
The pieces of my heart that have been ripped away from me. 
           Am                             F
And if the feeling starts to coming, I've learned to stop 'em fast. 
       Dm7                                 G
`Cause I don't know, if I let 'em go, they might not wanna pass. 
                 C              G
And there's just so many people trying to get me on the phone. 
            Am                Am/G
And there's bills to pay, and songs to play,  
      F
And a house to make a home. 
            C         G                          C
I guess I'm older now and I ain't got no time to cry. 
C                    G
I can still remember before I heard of Merle. 
   Am               Am/G       F
So many things have changed so much here in my world. 
           C                                  Am
I remember sitting on the front porch when an ambulance went by, 
         Dm7                               G
And just listening to those sirens I would breakdown and cry. 
            C
But now I'm walking and I'm talking, 
           G
Doing just what I'm supposed to do. 
Am          Am/G               F
Working overtime to make sure I don't come unglued. 
            C             G
I guess I'm older now and I ain't got no time to cry. 
     F                              G
I've got no time to look back, I've got no time to see, 
    C                            F
The pieces of my heart that have been ripped away from me. 
           Am                             F
And if the feeling starts to coming, I've learned to stop 'em fast. 
       Dm7                                 G
`Cause I don't know, if I let 'em go, they might not wanna pass. 
                 C              G
And there's just so many people trying to get me on the phone. 
            Am                Am/G
And there's bills to pay, and songs to play,  
      F
And a house to make a home. 
            C         G                          C
I guess I'm older now and I ain't got no time to cry. 
 
__KEY CHANGE__ 
      D                          A
Now I sit down on the sofa and I watch the evening news: 
          Bm           Bm/A      G
There's a half a dozen tragedies from which to pick and choose. 
    D                         A
The baby that was missing was found in a ditch today. 
            Em7                             A
And there's bombs a'flying and people dying not so far away. 
                D
And I'll take a beer from the 'fridgerator, 
       A                              Bm             Bm/A
And go sit out in the yard and with a cold one in my hand, 
               G
I'm gonna bite down and swallow hard. 
            D         A                      Bm
Because I'm older now I ain't got no time to cry. 

It's true... 
            D         A                          D
I guess I'm older now and I ain't got no time to cry.
