[G#] [C#] [G#]
It's been [C#] a long [G#] time since I walked through this old [C#] town.
[G#] Oh, how [C#] the memories start to [D#] flow.
[G#] And there's the [C#] old movie house, [G#] they finally closed [F#] it down.
[C#] You [G#] could find me there [C#] every Friday night,
[G#] twenty years ago.
[C#] [G#]
[C#] [G#] I worked [C#] the counter at the [G#] drugstore down the [F#] street.
[C#] [G#] But [C#] nobody's left there I would [D#] know.
[G#] On Saturday [C#] mornings that's [G#] where all my [F#] friends would [C#] be.
[G#] You'd be surprised [C#] what a dime would [G#] buy [D#] twenty years [G#]
[C#] ago.
[D#] All [C] [Fm] my worries from [C#] those days come [G#] gather round me.
What [Fm] I'd given could [C#] take me back in [D#] time.
Oh, [Fm] it almost seems [C#] like yesterday's [Cm] where do the good [C#] times go?
[G#] Life was so much [C#] [G#] easier twenty years ago.
I [C#]
[G#]
guess I should stop by Mr.
Johnson's hardware [F#] store.
[C#]
[G#] His only son was my friend [D#] Joe.
[G#] But he joined [C#] the army back [G#] in 1964.
[F#] [C#]
[G#] How could we know [C#] he would never come back [G#] twenty years ago?
[C#]
[D#] All [C] my [Fm] worries from [C#] those days come [G#] gather round [C#] me.
[G#] What [Fm] I'd given could [C#] take me back [D#] in time.
[Fm] Oh, it almost [C#] seems like yesterday's [Fm] where do [Cm] the good [C#] times go?
[G#] Life was so [C#] much easier [G#] twenty years ago.
Oh, it almost seems [C#] like yesterday [G#] twenty years ago.
