The Old Woman In Me Chords

(ver. 1)
Lori Mckenna
[Intro]
D  Gmaj7  Em7  D
 
 
[Verse 1]
D                                 Gmaj7
The old woman in me thinks I look good in these jeans
                       Em7               D
She remembers what her body did carrying all those kids
                                              Gmaj7
She's narrowed down the truth, she don't even dye her roots
                   Em7                                  D             Gmaj7  Em7  D
She's proud of the life she lived, says it made her the woman she is
 
 
[Verse 2]
D                                       Gmaj7
The old woman in me, she don't wanna go back in time
                         Em7                                          D
Thinks her fifties might been her prime, says, "Don't give up on that man of mine"
                                                      Gmaj7
She's good at listening, says, "Kiss him every time a kid walks in"
                   Em7                                 D
Remember what your heart is for, and you won't have to ask for more
 
 
[Chorus]
             G
She's a no-regretter
                Bm
Yeah, a good forgiver
                      A                                G
Yeah, and where she's worn around the edges, go on and let her be
                                            Bm
She's peace in a house dress, I'm a work in progress
           A                    G            D  Gmaj7  Em7  D
I hope someday I get to be the old woman in me
 
 
[Verse 3]
D                                         Gmaj7
The old woman in me never made herself an enemy
                         Em7                               D
Took a while and finally found her faith, says, "Everybody makes mistakes"
                                                            Gmaj7
She'll smile and look you in the eye, say, "I love you" too many times
                     Em7                   D
Yeah, but she don't apologize for all that love
 
 
[Chorus]
             G
She's a no-regretter
                Bm
Yeah, a good forgiver
                      A                                G
Yeah, and where she's worn around the edges, go on and let her be
                                            Bm
She's peace in a house dress, I'm a work in progress
           A                    G            D    G  Em7  D
I hope someday I get to be the old woman in me, yeah
 
 
[Outro]
D                             G
The old woman in me sits on a front porch swing
             Em7                            D       G
Watching her grandkids play, dreaming 'bout yesterday
      Em D
Yesterday
