[G#]
[A]
We never had that much to do, so we'd just lay around in someone's house.
[E] Someday I'll have it all again, just like way [A] back when.
Back then we'd sleep into the afternoon, then we'd just get up [D] and go outside.
[E] Open a window, let the breeze blow in, forget [A] everything.
[D] Yeah, those would be the [A] days that I'd be [D] missing.
When I'm [A] older, when I'm gray, and when I [E] stop [D] working.
I hope that [A] I can say, when all [E] my days are done, we were just [A] having fun.
[G#] Well, [A]
we'd go drinking in the afternoon, lie out on the grass and fall asleep.
Oh, [E] will I ever see that girl again, the girl from [A] way back then?
Yeah, we used to share a cigarette and troll together everything [D] we had.
[E] Then go driving in my parents' car, we were straight [A] to far.
Oh [D] yeah, those would [A] be the days that I'd be missing.
[D] When I'm older, [A] when I'm gray, and when I stop [D] working.
I hope that [A] I can say, when all my [E] days are done, that I had [A] my fun.
[D] [A]
[E] [F#m] [E]
[D] Those would be [A] the days that I had [E] my fun.
[D] Yeah, time can [A] move so fast.
[E] Some things don't [F#m] make sense.
[E]
[D] Here's to you, my [A] dear old friend, from [E] way back when.
Yeah, [D] those would be [A] the days that I'd be [D] missing.
When I'm [A] older, when I'm gray, and when [C#m] I stop [D] working.
I hope that I [A] can say, when all my [E] days are done, that I [A] had my fun.
[D] [N]
