Eb5              Ab5      Eb5           Ab5                     Eb5  Ab5  Eb5  Ab5  
Lookin back on when I, was a little nappy headed boy, 
Eb5            Ab5    Eb5                     Ab5                          Eb5  Ab5  Eb5 Ab5 
Then my only worry, was for Christmas what would be my toy, 
Bb5                  C5              F5                Ab5 
Even though we sometimes, would not get a thing, 
Bb5                  C5         F5                     Bb5 
We were happy with the, joy that they would bring, 
 
(repeat as above) 

Sneakin out the back door to hang out with those hoodlum friends of mine 

Greeted at the back door with "I thought I told you not to go outside, 

Tryin the best to bring that water to your eye 

Thinkin it might stop her from whuppin your behind 
                  Eb5  Ab5     Eb5                 Ab5 
I wish those days,  could ,  come back once more 
                     Eb5  Ab5  Eb5          Ab5 
Why did those days   ev---er    have to go 
                  Eb5  Ab5    Eb5                Ab5 
I wish those days,  could,  come back once more 
                     Eb5  Ab5 Eb5       Ab5                           Eb5 
Why did those days   ev---er  have to go, cause I loved 'em so    
 
Brother says hes tellin, bout you playin doctor with that girl 
Just don't tell Ill give you, anything you want in this whole wide world, 
Mama gives you money, for Sunday school 
You trade yours for candy, after chuch is through 
 
Smokin cigarettes and writin somethin nasty on the wall 
Teacher sends you to the principle office down the hall 
You grow up and learn that kind of thing aint right 
But while you were doin it, it sure felt outta sight 
 
I wish those days, could, come back once more 
Why did those days ev-er have to go 
I wish those days, could, come back once more 
Why did those days ev-er have to go, cause I loved em so        
 
Jam on Eb5   Ab5 till the end
