THOSE WERE THE DAYS CHORDS

[Start]

[Intro]
G                          
 Y'all remember growing up
Gsus4            C   
Back when we was kids
G                                       Gsus4
Outside playing from sun up to sun down baby 
          C         
We didn't have a lot
       G                
But we found a lot to do
C Gsus4     G                  
      And those were the days


[Verse]
    G                                                   
I'm riding around the city out of town I'm goin' to work
          C                                                     
I told my boss to send me home cause city life gets on my nerves
       C                                                              
I just need a little break right now fishing pole and a lake right now
  C                               
A cold drink and a steak right now
                                   C   
This country boy about to break on down
C                                                           
I'm headed for them dirt roads and turning off my work phone
G                                  D                                
These work boots they gotta go and I'm coming out these work clothes
      D                               
Gotta get on down to that country life
                               D    
That's the only thing this boy knows
G                                                                    
Backyard football games cooking on the grill under the oak tree shade
                         Dsus4               G   
Grandma's sweet lemonade yeah those were the days


[Chorus]
     G                         
Used truck and rusted ol' paint
                         Dsus4            
Still do the job putting money in the bank
      G                          Dsus4                        
And a country girl sittin' on my side yeah those were the days
G                                    
Used to not have a worry in the world
Dsus4                                    
Small town boy looking for a country girl
G                                        
Chasing my dreams on these old dirt roads
Dsus4                              G    
Windows rolled down turning up the radio
     G                  
Yeah those were the days


[Verse]
G                                           
What I wouldn't give to go back to them days
C                                   D                            
Grandpa drive that truck around and grandma taught me how to pray
G                                                   
Even though my dad is gone my granny made it seem ok
                                        Dsus4                   
Cause she taught me how to be a man and something's never change
        G                                               
Used to beg my uncle Ricky to let me ride in his Cutlass
     G                                                          
That three hundred and fifty rocket that car is really something
       Dsus4                                          
We was cruising on them back roads it don't get better
C                                           
Man I wish them days could've lasted forever
G                                                      Dsus4         
Backyard football games cooking on the grill under the oak tree shade
G               Dsus4                        G   
Grandma's sweet lemonade yeah those were the days


[Chorus]
     G

                         Dsus4            
Still do the job putting money in the bank
G                                          Dsus4          G   
And a country girl sittin' on my side yeah those were the days
        G                            
Used to not have a worry in the world
G                                        
Small town boy looking for a country girl
G                                        
Chasing my dreams on these old dirt roads
Dsus4                              G     D Em7
Windows rolled down turning up the radio    
     Em7                
Yeah those were the days


[Verse]
      G                                           
I was just a young boy and I remember how it feels
   C                            Dsus4                
To wake up in the morning don't stress about no bills
   Dsus4                                             
No worries in the world just to grab my fishin' reels
    Dsus4                                            
And find a country girl and all that on me disappears
       Dsus4                                             
We was running through the bushes splashing in the creeks
C                                       D               
Fishing out the fishing holes trying to catch us a beast
Dsus4                                        
Mud on my feet a couple holes in my jeans and
  C                                   
A white tshirt that'd never stay clean


[Chorus]
G                                                      Dsus4         
Backyard football games cooking on the grill under the oak tree shade
      G             Dsus4                        G   
And a Grandma sweet lemonade yeah those were the days
     G                          
Used truck with rusted ol' paint
G                                         
Still do the job putting money in the bank
                              Dsus4                        
And a country girl sittin' my side yeah those were the days
G                                    
Used to not have a worry in the world
Dsus4                                    
Small town boy looking for a country girl
G

Dsus4                              G     Em7
Windows rolled down turning up the radio
