D G D C G
It's been a long time since I've walked through this old town
D G A A7
Oh how the memories start to flow
D G D C G
There's the old movie house, they finally closed it down
D G A A7 D G D C G
You could find me there every Friday night twenty years ago
D G D C G
I worked the counter at the drugstore down the street
D G A A7
But nobody's left there that I would know
D G D C G
On Saturday mornings that's where all my friends would meet
D G A A7 D
You'ld be surprized what a dime would buy twenty years ago
Bm G D
All my memries from those days come gather around me
Bm G A A7
What I'd give if they could take me back in time
Bm G D G
Oh, it almost seems like yesterday, where do the good times go?
D G A A7 D G D G D C G
Life was so much easier twenty years ago
D G D C G
I guess I should stop by Mr. Johnson's Hardware Store
D G A A7
His only son was my friend Joe
D G C G
He joined the army back in 1964
D G A A7 D
How could we know he would never come back twenty years ago
CHORUS
Life was so much easier twenty years ago.
