Intro: Ebm7    Ab7    Ebm7   Ab7.....

Ebm7              Ab7      Eb7           Ab7                     Ebm7  Ab7 
Ebm7  Ab7 
Lookin back on when I, was a little nappy headed boy,

Ebm7            Ab7    Eb7                     Ab7                         
Ebm7  Ab7  Ebm7 Ab7
Then my only worry, was for Christmas what would be my toy,

Bb7                  C7              Fm7                Abm7
Even though we sometimes, would not get a thing,

Bb7                  C7         Fm7                     Bb7
We were happy with the, joy that they would bring,

(repeat as above)
Sneakin out the back door to hang out with those hoodlum friends of mine
Greeted at the back door with "I thought I told you not to go outside,
Tryin the best to bring that water to your eye
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   ev-----er    have to go

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

                     Ebm7  Ab7 Ebm7       Ab7                          
Ebm7
Why did those days   ev----er  have to go, cause I loved 'em so...

Brother says hes tellin, bout you playin doctor with that girl
Just don't tell Ill give you, anything you want in this whole wide world,
Mama gives you money, for Sunday school
You trade yours for candy, after chuch is through

Smokin cigarettes and writin somethin nasty on the wall
Teacher sends you to the principle office down the hall
You grow up and learn that kind of thing aint right
But while you were doin it, it sure felt outta sight

I wish those days, could, come back once more
Why did those days ev-er have to go
I wish those days, could, come back once more
Why did those days ev-er have to go, cause I loved em so.......

Jam on Ebm7...Ab7 till the end
