[Intro 1]
[Em]

[Verse 1]
The [Em]world keeps on changing
in [D]so many ways
[Em]But I can't help thinking
it's [D]been better
[Em]A simpler time than
that [D]seemed long ago,
Not like this world I [Em]don't know,
This [D]world I just don't wanna [Em]know.
People took time to [D]ac tually care,
[Em]Pretty young girls with
[D]their long flowing hair,
[Em]We prayed to God and he
[D]took us to church
Now we're all lost and
we've [Em]searched
Yeah, [D]now we're all lost
and we've [Em]searched
Oh, I [G]wish we were back
in [D]the days again
When [G]wo men were real
and [D]boys became men
And I wish I'd been around back [Em]then
I [D]wish I could have lived back [Em]then[C][D][Bm]
[Em][C][D][Bm][Em][C][D][Bm][Em]
Sullivan was on on [D]a Sunday night
Mick[Em]ey'd swing and the
ball [D]would take flight
Min[Em]nie's skirt and [D]Mrs. Robinson
Life in love sure was [Em]fun
And it [D]felt like it'd only be[Em]gun
Lucy and Gilligan [D]made everyone laugh
[Em]A movie ticket was
a [D]buck and a half
[Em]There was meaning in
[D]each and every song
And the British invasion was [Em]on
With [D]Paul, George, and Ringo, and [Em]John
Oh, I [G]wish we were back
in the [D]days again
When [G]wo men were real
and [D]boys became men
And I wish I'd been around back [Em]then
I [D]wish I could've lived back [Em]then[C][D][Bm][Em]

[D]I'm [Bm]gonna to[Em][Bm][Em]
I think about it,
and [D]I wish there were a way
[Em]For me to go back,
and [D]live in those days
[Em]I'm in anachronism,
disillu[D]sioned by it all
Sometimes I just stare at the [Em]wall
Yeah, [D]I just sit and stare at the w[Em]all
Oh, I [G]wish we were back
in the [D]days again
When [G]women were real
and [D]boys became men
I wish I'd been around back then
[Em]I wish I cou[D]ld've lived back then[Em]
I [D]wish I'd been alive back then
[Em]I wish[D] I could've lived back[D] then
[Em]I wish[D] I could live back
then
