[Intro]
| D | D G | D | D G |

[Verse 1]
D                             G                       G/F#
I remember old Dan Cotton, so old that he'd forgotten .
Em7                     A                     D    | D G |
Just how long he'd been floatin' through this life
   D
He said that he'd fought against the Indians
        G
And his daddy was an old line trapper
G     G/F# Em7                 A                D    | D G |
. And he   thinks that once or twice he'd had a wife

[Verse 2]
  D
I used to go down by the river after school
         G
When old Dan was relaxin' with a fishpole (down by the river)
G G/F#    Em7                   A                    D   | D G |
. And I'd ask him what he could offer a young, young boy
D                                 G
Dan would start a-reminiscin' and sharin' his words of wisdom
G     G/F# Em7              A                  D    | D G |
. And I  remember I used to listen to him with joy

[Chorus 1]
D                            D/E D/F#
Old Dan, somethin' happenin' to  you
     G                               G/F#
Yes, old Dan, somethin' happenin' to you
  Em7                   A                        D   | D G |
I hope that you finally find what you're lookin' for
D                            D/E D/F#
Old Dan, somethin' happenin' to  you
     G                               G/F#
Yes, old Dan, somethin' happenin' to you
  Em7                   A                        D   | D G |
I hope that you finally find what you're lookin' for

[Verse 3]
D
Then one day we couldn't find old Dan
          G
And for a while he didn't come around
G G/F#  Em7                            A                  D    | D G |
. And I heard from the folks that he'd gone to the hills alone
          D
Well, I admit I was a little bit worried
        G
Because Dan was so old and just a little foolhardy
G/F#  Em7                        A                     D  | D D/E D/F# |
But I knew in my heart that he'd soon be a-comin' back home

[Chorus 2]
G
Old Dan, somethin' happenin' to you
     F#m
Yes, old Dan, somethin' happenin' to you
  Em7                   A                        D  | D D/E D/F# |
I hope that you finally find what you're lookin' for
G
Old Dan, somethin' happenin' to you
    F#m
Yes, old Dan, somethin' happenin' to you
  Em7                   A                        D   | D G |
I hope that you finally find what you're lookin' for

[Verse 4]
D
Then came the message from old Doc Jones
     G
That Dan's time had finally come
G G/F# Em7                       A                    D    | D G |
. So I rushed to his side in the shack that he called home
  D
Inside my heart I was feelin' so sad
           G
But when I looked into that old man's eyes
G G/F# Em7                        A                      D    | D G |
. .  I felt such a peace 'cause I knew that he was goin' home

[Verse 5]
   D
He couldn't really speak 'cause he was now so weak
       G
But he managed a tiny smile
G     G/F# Em7                     A                         D    | D G |
. And in a glance I knew that he'd found what he was lookin' for
  D
I knew what he'd found in the woods that day
              G                                G G/F#
'Cause when I looked at him the very last time . .
  Em7                       A                     D    | D7 D/E D/F# |
I looked into the face of a man who had found the Lord

[Chorus 3]
G
Old Dan, somethin' happened to you
     F#m
Yes, old Dan, somethin' happened to you
  Em7                   A                         D   | D7 D/E D/F# |
I know that you finally found what you're lookin' for
G
Old Dan, somethin' happened to you
     F#m
Yes, old Dan, somethin' happened to you
       Em7                      A                          D
You're still the old Dan that I love, but you're somethin' more

[Outro]

Charted by Dexex

I have to admit that this song didn't hold up as well over the years as I thought it had.
But as long as I made a chart, I might as well post it.
