When I was a young boy, I didn't need much
E (022100@1)                  F#G#            A(bar) 
A kind word or two, or a warm touch
E (022100@1)                  F#G#            A(bar) 
For what it stands, i got a man
E (022100@1)                  F#G#            A(bar) 
With an empty beer bottle and a screaming hand

Cowboys and Indians, pirates and cap guns

He sees how hard things were, for his old man
