Lyrics
Amaj7 A5 When we’d go down to the park A5 Amaj7 We’d stay out after dark Cmaj7 All the pretty girls thought Amaj7 A5 We were crazy Amaj7 A5 Hanging out down by the tracks A5 Amaj7 Keeping the fire at our backs Cmaj7 Nothing but beer and weed Amaj7 To keep us warm Cmaj7 And I wonder where those days have Amaj7 A5 Gone Amaj7 A5 Matty Smitty Davis Shoes A5 Amaj7 Joey Pat and Johnny Roos Cmaj7 Amaj7 Mike Dennis James and Scotty T Cmaj7 Amaj7 Don’t forget ‘bout Racugs and Weeds Amaj7 A5 Playing ball down at the lake A5 Amaj7 How many plays we’d try to make Cmaj7 Amaj 7 Before we’d let the sun go down Cmaj7 Amaj7 Wish I could turn that clock around Dmin7 This band of brothers A5 Trying to recover Cmaj7 Cadd9 From the day I left you Amaj7 So tragically Amaj7 A5 Neptunes Wharf and CPI A5 Amaj7 COEDs Annies OBI Cmaj7 Amaj7 All the bars we’d drink at heavily Cmaj7 Amaj7 All the girls we’d pick up easily Cmaj7 Amaj7 I’d take it back for just one day Amaj7 A5 Singing Zeppelin in the streets A5 Amaj7 Brand new Nikes on our feet Cmaj7 Amaj7 Who knows just what it is we’re after Cmaj7 And Does Anyone Remember the Amaj7 Laughter? Dmin7 This band of brothers A5 Will learn to recover Cmaj7 From the day I left you Amaj7 So tragically D You held true to me A Whatever you believed C G I’m so glad to see you’re doing well D I listen to everything you need to tell A Secrets told at four AM C G You stayed with me my only friend D We watched as all the stars went flying by A We climbed upon the backstop C You listened while the tears dropped Cmaj7 Amaj7 Can I take it back for just one day? Amaj7 A5 I still watch you at the park A5 Amaj7 But you don’t stay after dark Cmaj7 Most of you have got Amaj7 A5 Your families Cmaj7 Cadd9 But I’m smiling down at you A5 Amaj7 Won’t you smile back at me Cmaj7 A5 Yeah I still remember you all A5 Amaj7 Won’t you raise a drink to me? A5 Amaj7 Keep smiling up at me Keep smiling up at me Keep smiling up at me
