                                            Old Town Pump 

(G) I remember the old town (C) pump 
Where the old men sat (G) around 
All of life experiences to be (D7) found 
At the old town pump in my home (G) town 

They would sit there and  (C) whittle, 
Or break off a chew or (G) two 
Some were permanent fix-(D7) tures 
Others were just passing (G) thru 

The old town pump that everyone (C) knew 
Now replaced by a water tower of  (G) blue 
And the sage old (D7) men, 
Well they are gone (G) too 

Oh if I had of  (C) listened 
To what they had to (G) say 
I may have av-(D7) oided 
What I have (G) today 

I miss that chatter of old yes-(C) terday 
All of lifes experiences to be (G) found 
At that old town (D7) pump 
In my home (G) town
