[Verse 1]
Em
Kids are scratching up the walk
Bm
Across the street and down the block
  C                                
I wish you'd stuck around to watch 
     D
the night fall
Em
Smack your hands against the wall
   Bm
Louise Bogan and Robert Frost
       C                           
Popped off the shelf when you went 
             D
through the door, singing

[Chorus]
C
Years from today
           G
When your name is just a name
        C
And my love is a couple candles
   G               D
Twinkling on your cake
Em                            Bm
That burn won't hurt you any more
         C                      
But I'll still keep your picture 
  D
lying in a drawer

Em
Kids are scratching up the walk
      Bm                           
Four letter words in rainbow 
   C
colored chalk
                          D
Sweep the dust under the rug
                      (C)
Oh if only we could talk

[Chorus]
(C)
Years away
           G
When your name is just a name
           C
You'll be countin' up your pennies
          G             D
Till I'm laughin in my grave
C
Years away

But I'll still keep your picture
 Am           D
Lying in a drawer

G
When I was a boy I could laugh at 
it, laugh at it
C
Now I wonder how I got that hold on 
me, hold on me
G                                 
When I was a boy I could laugh at 
                 C
it, laugh at it

When I was a boy I could laugh at 
it, laugh at it
