Banjo tuned E, Capo 1, Key G

Chorus:
 G
Old hands,

How soon did they
         C
Get this way?
     G                 D7     G
Thin skinned, easily bruised today

Old hands, showing 79 years of toil
Gripping the plow, tilling the soil
Now, barely turning this page
Glaring truth, signaling...old age

Chorus:

Old hands, through many storms,
Old hands, that look back at me
Asking how much more must I perform?
Many more chores, is what I see

tag: Old hands, many more chores, I see
