(Intro) C G Am G F Dm Am G.... X2  
 C                              F
Today he traded his big '98 automobile
                    Dm                    C     G
He got a heck of a deal on a new Porsche car
 C                                       F
He ain't wearing his usual grey business suit
                          Dm                       C
He's got jeans and high boots with an embroidered star


     Em                                    F
And today he's forty years old, going on twenty
      Em                                             F
Don't look for the grey in his hair 'cause he ain't got any
                                                          C
He's got a young thing beside him that just melts in his hand
      Dm                  G                       C
He's middle aged crazy, trying to prove he still can

C G Am G F Dm Am G.... X2  

     C                                                  F
He's gotta a woman he's loved for a long, long time at home
                           Dm                           C     G
Ah, but the thrill is all gone when they cut down the lights
  C                                                    F
They've got a business that they spent a while coming by
                     Dm                           C
Been a long uphill climb but now the profits are high


     Em                                   F
But today he's forty years old, going on twenty
       Em                                       F
And he hears of sordid affairs and he ain't had any
                                                   C
And the young thing beside him, you know she understands
            Dm                 G                       C
That he's middle aged crazy, trying to prove he still can


C G Am G F Dm Am G.... (Repeat and fade out)
