C
I remember playing games
             G       Am
And wishing we were older then
                 F
We were so much younger then
                C
Those were the days

I remember holding hands
             G        Am
And thinking it would never end
               F
We were so in love back then
                C
Those were the days


[Chorus]
                E7
Those were the days of innocence
   Am
And we were so naïve
  F
You would lie down in the grass
 C
All tangled up in me
  E7
Always wasn't just a word
   Am
But something to believe
D7                           G
We had our entire lives to waste

                Am
Those were the days
                C
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
                Am
Those were the days
                C
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh


[Verse 2]
C
Time was so much slower then
       G        Am
Seven turned to seventeen
                 F
Somewhere in the in between
                C
Those were the days
C
Back before we realized
            G         Am
Hearts were small and fragile things
                       F
We said, "I do", with jelly rings
                C
Those were the days


[Chorus]
                E7
Those were the days of innocence
   Am
And we were so naïve
  F
You would lie down in the grass
 C
All tangled up in me
  E7
Always wasn't just a word
   Am
But something to believe
D7                          G
We had our entire lives to waste

               Am
Those were the days
                C
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
                Am
Those were the days
                C
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh


Dm
I still have the note you wrote
G                                      A
Said, "I'll miss you darling, be back soon"
Dm
Four pictures from a photobooth
G                                 A
You were laughing, I was kissing you

      Amaj7
And kissing you
             F#m           C
God, I'm missing you


[Verse 3]
C
Nothing ever stays the same
           G          Am
Glad we didn't know it then
                        F
'Cause we were so much younger then


[Chorus]
                E7
Those were the days of innocence
   Am
And we were so naïve
  F
You would lie down in the grass
 C
All tangled up in me
  E7
Always wasn't just a word
   Am
But something to believe
D7                          G
I still miss you in a thousand ways

                    Am
Oh, those were the days
                C
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
                Am
Those were the days
                C
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

               Am
Those were the days
                C
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
                Am
Those were the days
                C
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
