Capo 1
Verse:
Dsus2 	 Asus2 	 
G 	 Asus2
You were tan legs and flip flops, little blue tang top
With the left strap hanging off your shoulder
Me, I was a ball cap, Tom Petty turned up
Charger with a supped up motor
Those were the days
The good ole days

We were back roads and back seats, burning time and gasoline
Till midnight was never enough
We’d turn off the headlights, creep up the gravel drive
Prayin’ your daddy wasn’t up
Back in the day
The good ole days

Chorus:
G 	 A 	  	 
Till you rode a scholarship out to the west coast
I went to boot camp north of Chicago
Ain’t nothing better than us living down on
Route 28

Dsus2 	 Asus2 	 
G 	 Asus2 	 
G 	 Asus2 	 
Yea well I’ve done some living, and I’ve done some loving
But girl I gotta say
It’s never been good as it was in the good ole days
Dsus2 	 Asus2 	 
G 	 Asus2

Verse:
Dsus2 	 Asus2 	 
G 	 Asus2
Yea I saw your mama, and asked her about you
She said I should give you a call
So I helped her load up groceries in her trunk
And longer we stood there and talked
I thought those were the days
The good ole days


Chorus:
G 	 A 	  	 
Till you rode a scholarship out to the west coast
I went to boot camp north of Chicago
Ain’t nothing better than us living down on

Yea well I’ve done some living, and I’ve done some loving
But girl I gotta say
It’s never been good as it was in the good ole days

Back roads and back seats, burning time and gasoline

The good ole days
