Those Were The Days

D D When I walked barefoot on blacktop G In the summer heat D And had skin so tough G And dark under my feet C But no callous on my heart G Full of wonder and pure C I was infected with wildness A E G A That even God couldn't cure D Those were the days G Best friends over for the night C On the boat with my dad tomorrow G I hope the fish'll bite C Things were so simple then G Oh boy but they sure were right E As true as a mother's love G A And as righteous as the One from above D Those were the days D G D G C G C A E G A D Those were the days G Best friends over for the night C On the boat with my dad tomorrow G I hope the fish'll bite C Things were so simple then G Oh boy but they sure were right E As true as a mother's love G A And as righteous as the One from above D Those were the days G Those were the days Bm Those were the days Em Those were the days D When I walked barefoot on blacktop G D In the summer heat
