"Old Men" lyrics

I bought a black suit today, the kind I hoped I'd never wear
To church on a Monday afternoon, with all your friends and family there
And then I looked through my phone for the last words that we said
They were "I love you", and there's a little peace in that
I guess

But we were gonna be old men
Sit out front and smoke cigars
Swapping stories and watching cars
We'll always be old friends
But I guess you'll stay young forever now
And I'll go on with life somehow
The best way that I can
We were gonna be old men

I always thought someday when our memories start to go
We'd look back on all of this as just a quick bump in the road
Thought we'd play some bad golf and go out to dinner with our wives
Laugh too loud at our own jokes, sit back and watch them roll their eyes

We were gonna be old men catching bluegill on the bank
Talking 'bout the chance of rain
Yeah, we'll always be old friends
But I guess you'll stay young forever now
And I'll go on with life somehow
The best way that I can
We were gonna be old men

Mm, but this missing you's getting old, man
I wish I wasn't angry, but I am
I don't think I'll ever understand

We were gonna be old men
Sit out front and smoke cigars
Play old songs on our guitars
Yeah, we'll always be old friends
But I guess you'll stay young forever now
And I'll go on with life somehow
The best way that I can
We were gonna be old men

We were gonna be old men
We were gonna be old men
