The Old You Lyrics & Chords By Silkworm

Did you ever have a friend
Who did much better than you had planned?
Returning to work, back out on the doze
At a factory job making garden hose
Saw the guy Grieg in the High Tetons
The Summer sun had burned his nose
Listen to Van at the swimming hole
"you'll never match him, so give up the ghost".
He was the gladdest man I had ever seen
And he looked it too
What's your name? Respond to your name
Is You, Is it You, You were world-proof
Last year went to the Outer Banks
Planned to fish But the weather stank
It's been a while since we played our game
But I knew you when you weren't so tame
Anwar came out to drink in town
All the way down from his mountain hideout
No hardship here for him to endure
Not what he's used to, he'll get by I'm sure
Is You, Is it You, You were world-proof
