As The Days Go By

Am Em C Em Am I went to church with Mom Am C D She told me God does love you, son Am Em C Em Am I went a-way to school Am C D But lost myself when I left you Am G D And all the cool kids were smoking down the street Am G D I look down at my big flat feet G Em7 While big boys were chantin, fightin G Am D I found songs & stuck to writing Am Em C Em Am I went down to the store Am C D I had three dollars but I needed more Am Em C Em Am I went back to the house Am C D I broke the news to my spouse Am G D Now all my babies are gonna starve tonight Am G D How this ends just doesn't seem right G Em7 I'm lover, father, wise man G Am D I'm as young as way back when D You keep dreaming G As the days go by
