Oh some times I think back to when I was younger
F G C F/C
Life was so much simpler then
C G
Dad would be up at dawn
F C Am
He'd be watering the lawn
F G
Or maybe going fishing again
C G F C Am
Oh and mom would be fixing up something in the kitchen
F G C F/C
Fresh biscuits or hot apple pie
C G F C
And I'd spend all day long in the basement
Am F
Torturing rats with a hack-saw
G
And pulling the wings off of flies
C G F C
Those were the good old days
C Dm G Ab A
Those were the good old days
Bb F C Am
The years go by but the memory stays
F G Bb/C F/C
And those were the good old days
C G F C Am
I can still remember good old Mr. Fender
F G C F/C
Who ran the corner grocery store
C G F C Am
Oh, he'd strolled down the aisle with a big friendly smile
F G
And he'd say "Howdy" when you walked in the door
C G F C Am
Always treated me nice, gave me kindly advice
F G C F/C
I don't know why I set fire to his place
C G F C Am
Oh I'll never forget the day I bashed in his head
F G
Well you should've seen the look on his face
Let me tell ya now
C G F C
Those were the good old days
C Dm G Ab A
Those were the good old days
Bb F C Am
The years go by but the memory stays
F G Bb/C F/C C
And those were the good old days
Am C
Do you remember sweet Michelle
F G C F/C
She was my high school romance
Am C
She was fun to talk to and nice to smell
F G C F/C
So I took her to the homecoming dance
C G F C Am
Then I tied her to a chair and I shaved off all her hair
F G C F/C
And I left her in the desert all alone
C G
Well sometimes in my dreams
F C Am
I can still hear the screams
F G
Oh I wonder if she ever made it home
I tell ya
C G F C
Those were the good old days
C Dm G Ab A
Those were the good old days
Bb F C Am
The years go by but the memory stays
F G
And those were the good old days
Let me tell ya buddy
C G F C
Those were the good old days
C Dm G Ab A
Those were the good old days
Bb F C Am
The years go by but the memory stays
F G Bb/C F/C
And those were the good old days
