[Intro]
E
I remember when
[Verse 1]
A
We kids used to be two, three shots followed by a couple [?]
Bm
Wake up, have a beer, never needed to recover
E
A cold, red Gatorade and I'd feel great
D E
Now it's a bottle of Advil and a whole next day
[Chorus]
A
My old tricks don't work anymore
Bm
They don't get it done like they did before
E
Yeah, the cold, hard truth is gettin' harder to swallow
D
I guess the younger me is a hard act to follow
A
My old ways ain't workin' for me
Bm
Sometimes I still wake up and think I'm 23
E
All my elders used to tell me this would happen for sure
D E A
Now my old tricks don't work anymore
A
Nah, nah
[Post-Chorus]
E
If you think that sucks, man, listen
[Verse 2]
A
Stupid jokes would make her laugh
A
Compliments would make her smile
Bm
Kisses on her neck always used to drive her wild
E
All the things I used to do
E
I can't do anymore
D E
Like sayin' huntin’ with the boys is a business trip
[Chorus]
A
My old tricks don't work anymore
Bm
They don't get it done like they did before
E
Yeah, the cold, hard truth is gettin' harder to swallow
D
I guess the younger me is a hard act to follow
A
My old ways ain't workin' for me
Bm
Sometimes I still wake up and think I'm 23
E
All my elders used to tell me this would happen for sure
D E A
Now my old tricks don't work anymore
[Post-Chorus]
A
Here we go
Bm
Wait, where we goin'?
E
Aw, my old tricks
D
They just don't work anymore
[Chorus]
A
My old tricks don't work anymore
Bm
They don't get it done like they did before
E
Yeah, the cold, hard truth is gettin' harder to swallow
D
I guess the younger me is a hard act to follow
A
My old ways ain't workin' for me
Bm
Sometimes I still wake up and think I'm 23
E
All my elders used to tell me this would happen for sure
D E A
Now my old tricks don't work anymore
A E
No, no
[Outro]
Bm
Haha
E
We ain’t gettin’ any younger, are we?
A
Mm-mm
We, kids, used to be two, three shots followed by a couple others
Wake up, have a beer, never needed to recover
A cold, red Gatorade and I'd feel great
Now it's a bottle of Advil and a whole next day
My old tricks don't work anymore
They don't get it done like they did before
Yeah, the cold, hard truth is gettin' harder to swallow
I guess the younger me is a hard act to follow
My old ways ain't workin' for me
Sometimes I still wake up and think I'm 23
All my elders used to tell me this would happen for sure
Now my old tricks don't work anymore
No, no
[Blake Shelton:]
If you think that sucks, man, listen
Stupid jokes would make her laugh
Compliments would make her smile
Kisses on her neck always used to drive her wild
All the things I used to do
I can't get away with
Like sayin' huntin' with the boys is a business trip
[Blake Shelton (Thomas Rhett & Blake Shelton):]
My old tricks don't work anymore
They don't get it done like they did before
Yeah, the cold, hard truth is gettin' harder to swallow
I guess the younger me is a hard act to follow
My old ways ain't workin' for me
Sometimes I still wake up and think I'm 23
All my elders used to tell me this would happen for sure
Now my old tricks (don't work anymore)
[Thomas Rhett (Blake Shelton):]
Here we go
(Wait. Where we goin'?)
Aw, my old, old tricks
They just don't work anymore
[Thomas Rhett (Blake Shelton) {Both}:]
And my old tricks don't work anymore
They don't get it done like they did before
Yeah, the cold, hard truth is gettin' harder to swallow
I guess the younger me is a hard act to follow
My old ways (ain't workin' for me)
(Sometimes I still wake up and think I'm 23)
(All my elders used to tell me this would happen for sure)
(Now my old tricks) {don't work anymore}
No, no
