FIRST VERSE:
(D) Talked to my daddy last (G) night about the (A) nineteen fifty (D) two
(D) I'd heard about the good ol' days
(G) And I was (A) wonderin' if they were (D) true
(G) Well it must have been, be (A) cause he smiled
and his (D) eyes looked into (G) mine
And I could (D) tell he touched a memory as he (A)  told me of a (D) time

CHORUS:
When the (G) Dodgers were in Brooklyn and the (D)air was clean
(G) Marylyn Monroe was breaking (D) hearts on silver (A) screens
Daddy (G) finally stole my momma's heart a(D)way from ol' James (G) Dean
On the (D) other side of memory's fence, the (A) grass is always (D)green

SECOND VERSE:
I talked to my momma, last night about the ways things use to be
Showed me of a picture of some here and a guy that looked like me
Spell bound around a tv in the den
I wish that we could go back to those innocent times again

CHORUS

BRIDGE:
(G) Now I know that time has (D) changed things
(G) Then and now is day and (D) night
(G) Memories will always (D) be larger than (G)life
And it's all right here in black in (A) white

CHORUS

On the (D) other side of memory's fence, the (A) grass is always (D)green
