These Old Eyes Have Seen It All
George Jones
Album: Wine Colored Roses
EThe old man's hair was white and his eyes looked tired
He drank his beer at a table all alone
But he smiled when I spoke to him so I sit down for awhile
I wound up sitting there the whole night long
'Cause I could see he had a lifetime on his mind
So I just sat there and listened I was glad to take the time
Then he said...
EI saw Jimmy Rodgers yodel on the sAtage
And I saw HB7ank when they walked him to his gErave
I saw a country boy from Memphis
Change the wAorld with rock and roll
And tB7hese old eyes have seen it aEll
Then he said...
I saw friends of mine on foreign soil die pAroud
I saw thB7ings over there son that I still can't talk aEbout
I saw a crazy man named Hitler and his aArmy rise and fall
Yes tB7hese old eyes have seen it aEll
AThese old eB7yes have seen it aEll
Now the hAands of time are writing on the wB7all
ATelling me I wB7on't have long wEaiting till my Jesus to cAalls
B7These old eyes have seen it Eal

l CI saw my swFeet Mary love me fBbifty years
With a trCembling hand he wiped away a tFear
He said my memories of Mary are the swBbeetest I recall
And thCese old eyes have seen it Fall
BbThese old eCyes have seen it Fall
They saw a Bbman walk on the moon and come back hCome
And BbI know it won't be vCery long until I hFear my Jesus Bbcall
CThese old eyes have seen it Fall
Son tChese old eyes have seen it Fall
