C
When I was young
                    Em
I'd listened to the radio
        Am              F
Waitin' for my favorite songs
          Am           Em
When they played I'd sing along
           Dm       G
It made me smile

                C
Those were such happy times
           Em
And not so long ago
      Am                    F
How I wondered where they'd gone
E7    G      Am
But they're back again
            F
Just like a long lost friend
        Dm                G
All the songs I loved so well


[Chorus]

     G7       C
(*)   Every Sha-la-la-la
      Am
Every Wo-wo-wo
       C        Am
Still shines
      C
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling
             Am
That they're starting to sing
    Dm      G
So fine


[Post Chorus]

          Am
When they get to the part
           E+
Where he's breakin' her heart
       Am7            F
It can really make me cry
          Em              G
Just like before
                C
It's yesterday once more


[Verse 2]

        C
Lookin' back on how it was
    Em
In years gone by
        Am                F
And the good times that I had
        Am              Em
Makes today seem rather sad
            Dm          G
So much has changed

       C                
It was songs of love that
                Em
I would sing to then
      Am              F
And I'd memorize each word
E7     G   Am
Those old melodies
              F
Still sound so good to me
        Dm              G
As they melt the years away


[Chorus]

   G7       C
Every Sha-la-la-la
      Am
Every Wo-wo-wo
       C        Am
Still shines
      C
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling
             Am
That they're starting to sing
    Dm      G
So fine


       Am
All my best memories
          E+
Come back clearly to me
         Am7          F
Some can even make me cry
          Em          G
Just like before
               C
It's yesterday once more


   G7       C
Every Sha-la-la-la
      Am
Every Wo-wo-wo
       C        Am
Still shines
      C
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling
             Am
That they're starting to sing
    Dm      G
So fine


   G7       C
Every Sha-la-la-la
      Am
Every Wo-wo-wo
       C        Am
Still shines
      C
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling
             Am
That they're starting to sing
    Dm      G
So fine
