Bright College Days

D              G         E7     
Bright college days, oh, 
            D
carefree days that fly
G          Em            Bm     
To thee we sing with our glasses
           A7
 raised on high
D             F#7      Bm       
Let's drink a toast as each of 
    F#
us recalls
D   B7         E7     
Ivy-covered professors in 
    A7  G       D
ivy-covered halls

[Pre-verse]
D           B7
Turn on the spigot
Em                A7
Pour the beer and swig it
D             A7   D
And gaudeamus igit-ur

[Verse 1]
          D7
Here's to parties we tossed
       G
To the games that we lost
          D7                    
(We shall claim that we won them 
      G
some day)

[Verse 2]
       E7
To the girls young and sweet

       A
To the spacious back seat
       E7                       A
Of our roommate's beat up Chevrolet

[Verse 3]
       F#
To the beer and benzedrine
       B
To the way that the dean
         F#                      B
Tried so hard to be pals with us all

[Verse 4]
     G#
To excuses we fibbed
       C#
To the papers we cribbed
         G#         C#             
From the genius who lived down the 
C#dim7
hall

[Bridge]
       A              A7
To the tables down at Mory's
D                 Bm
Wherever that may be
       E                           
Let us drink a toast to all we love
     A
 the best
        A                    
We will sleep through all the 
 A7
lectures
    D            Bm
And cheat on the exams
          E                     
And we'll pass, and be forgotten 
          A
with the rest

[Otro]
    D             G   E7         
Oh, soon we'll be out amid the 
           D
cold world's strife
G             Em               
Soon we'll be sliding down the 
Bm             A7
razor blade of life
B         F#7    Bm              
But as we go our sordid sep'rate 
F#
ways
D        B7       E7             
We shall ne'er forget thee, thou 
A7     G       D
golden college days

[Coda]
D7             G
Hearts full of youth
C7             F
Hearts full of truth
Bb7       Eb     A7       D
Six parts gin to one part vermouth
