(VERSE 1)
         D                          D/C#
We said Yes Maam and Yes Sir, cuz a good whoopin still worked
            Cadd9                 G
And if we talked back, we got it again
          Em
Back when kids got in fights, they didnt use guns or knives
                              Asus4      A
A bloody nose was as far as it went
       D                         D/C#
And we all ate our suppers with a Daddy and a Mother
      Cadd9                G
At the table without the t.v.
       Em                   A (pause)                 D
Yeah, thats how it was and thats how it still oughtta be


(CHORUS)
          G                               F#m
Well the world was much safer, you could count on your neighbor
        G            A                D
And a stranger was someone you just hadnt met yet
     G                         F#m
We trusted our preachers, our heroes and teachers
     Em                            A
And believed every word that they said

(VERSE 2)
There was no credit crunch and gas wasnt so much
And our jobs hadnt gone overseas
Yeah, thats how it was and thats how it still oughtta be

Solo

(CHORUS)
Yeah, the world was much safer, you could cont on your neighbor
And a stranger was someone you just hadnt met yet
We trusted our preachers, our heroes and teachers
And believed every word that they said

(VERSE 3)
      D                          D/C#
We followed the good book, now every time I look back
Cadd9                  G
I sure do like what I see
      Em                           A                  Bm   A   G   D/F#
