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
