Ebm7           Ab7     Ebm7         Ab7          Ebm7
Lookin back on when I, was a little nappy headed boy,
Ab7    Ebm7       Ab7                         
Ebm7         Ab7    Ebm7              Ab7              Ebm7
Then my only worry, was for Christmas what would be my toy,
Ab7    Ebm7     Ab7 
Bb7            C7         Fm7             Abm7
Even though we sometimes, would not get a thing,
Bb7           C7        Fm7                 Bb7-9
We were happy with the, joy that they would bring,

Ebm7            Ab7        Ebm7                Ab7                Ebm7 
Sneakin out the back door, hang out with those hoodlum friends of mine
Ebm7           Ab7               Ebm7               Ab7          Ebm7
Greeted at the back door with "I thought I told you not to go outside,
Bb7               C7         Fm7           Abm7 
Tryin the best to bring that water to your eye
Bb7              C7            Fm7             Bb7-9
Thinkin it might stop her from whuppin' your behind

             Ebm7    Ab7    Ebm7           Ab7
I wish those days,  could,  come back once more
              Ebm7   Ab7    Ebm7           Ab7
Why did those days   e-     ver    have to go
             Ebm7   Ab7     Ebm7           Ab7
I wish those days,  could,  come back once more
              Ebm7   Ab7    Ebm7         Ab7
Why did those days   e-     ver  have to go, cause I loved 'em so...

Bb7            C7     Fm7         Abm7  
Mama gives you money, for Sunday school
Bb7                 C7     Fm7             Bb7-9
You trade yours for candy, after church is through

Ebm7       Ab7        Ebm7             Ab7          Ebm7
Smokin cigarettes and writin' somethin nasty on the wall (you nasty boy!)
Ebm7              Ab7    Ebm7      Ab7             Ebm7
Teacher sends you to the principle office down the hall
Bb7             C7         Fm7                Abm7
You grow up and learn that kind of thing aint right
Bb7                  C7        Fm7             Bb7-9
But while you were doin it, it sure felt outta sight

             Ebm7    Ab7    Ebm7           Ab7
I wish those days,  could,  come back once more

I wish those days,  could,  come back once more
              Ebm7   Ab7    Ebm7         Ab7
Why did those days   e-     ver  have to go, cause I loved 'em so...
