Intro:  G   Am   G   Am   G   Am   G   Am   

Verse1:
G                    Am 
Well, I lived on the outskirts of town
G                Am 
In an eight room farm-house, baby
G                    Am
When my brothers and friends were around
G                Am 
There was always something doin’
Em                      Bm 
Had me a couple of real nice girlfriends
Am                   C 
Stopped by to see me once in a while
Em                  Bm    
When I think back a-bout those days
Am              C                G 
All I can do is sit and smile

Chorus:
G             Am 
That’s when a sport was a sport
G                Am 
And groovin’ was groovin’
G Am And dancin’ meant everything G Am We were young and we were improvin’ G Am Laughin’, laughin’, with our friends G Am Holdin’ hands meant somethin’, baby G Am Outside the club Cherry Bomb, G Am Our hearts were really thumpin’, Am G Am/Am-/Am (quickly) Say yeah, yeah, yeah (no chord) G Am Say yeah, yeah, yeah Verse2: The winter days they last forever But the weekends went by so quick Went ridin’ around this little country town We were goin’ nuts girl, out in the sticks One night, me with my big mouth A couple guys had to put me in my place When I see those guys these days We just laugh and say, Do you remember when? Repeat chorus 1/2 length intrumental chorus Verse3: Now, seventeen has turned thirty-five I’m surprised that we’re still livin’ If we’ve done any wrong I hope that we’re forgiven Got a few kids of my own And some days I still don’t know what to do I hope that they’re not laughin’ too loud When they hear me talkin’ like this to you Repeat chorus
