This is a tab I made from watching Mac play Salad Days acoustically. You can check out me playing it
here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7F5yTZKW3f8
I recommend watching the video so you can pick up the strumming pattern and learn how it all works,
it's very simple so you will be able to pick it up easily.
Standard Tuning with a capo on the 2nd fret

As I'm getting older, chip up on my shoulder
Rolling through life, to roll over and die

Missing hippy Jon, salad days are gone
Remembering things just to tell 'em so long
[scat singing]

Chorus:
Oh mama, actin' like my life's already over
Oh dear, act your age and try another year
Verse:
Always feeling tired, smiling when required
Write another year off and kindly resign
[scat singing]
Salad days are gone, missing hippy Jon
Remembering things just to tell 'em so long
[scat singing]
Chorus:
Oh mama, actin' like my life's already over
Oh dear, act your age and try another year [x2]
