Back In The Day

   E              A             
I was thinking’ bout long ago, 
F#                B
those summer nights I loved so
   E              A               
Take a walk on down the block just
     F#            B
 to see who’s hangin’ round
   E              A             
My sister would tag along with 
F#            B
her radio and we’d sing a song
    E              A           F#
Like the radio, I was hoping’ 
            B
those summer nights would never end


[Chorus]
E    G#m      C#m         F#
             Oh but they do, yes 
they do
F#m                      B       
      They say you can never go 
     G#m7                      C#7
back home, and I believe that’s true
             F#m             B7
But i drift away like Dobie Gray
            E   A   F#   B
Back in the Day


[Verse 2]
  E                A              
Sometimes I reminisce ‘bout the 
  F#                          B
last day of middle school and my 
first kiss
  E                A              
Sweet Jane in a halter top and 
  F#                          B
tight bell bottom jeans
  E                A              
I took a chance, slow dance, in my
  F#                          B
 puka shells and my painter’s pants

  E             A             
A record was playin’, Elton was 
F#            B                  
sayin goodbye to the yellow brick
     E
 road


[Chorus]
E      G#m       C#m         F#
               Oh how it goes and 
goes
F#m                    B         
     They say you can never go 
   G#m7                C#7
back home, and they’re not wrong
                    F#m            
But she’s killing me softly with 
   B7
her song
             E   A   F#   B
From back in the day
