Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][G][D][D]
[A][A][D][D]

[Verse 1]
[D]Grandpa, tell me 'bout the [G]good old days
Sometimes it [D]feels like this world's gone [A]crazy
[D]Grandpa, take me back to [G]yesterday
When the line between [D]right and wrong
[A]Didn't seem so [D]hazy

[Chorus 1]
Did lovers really [G]fall in love to stay
And stand beside each [D]other,
come what may?
Was a promise really [A]something people kept
Not just something they would [D]say
Did families really [G]bow their heads to pray
Did daddies really [D]never go away?
Oh, [Em]Grandpa,
[A]tell me 'bout the good old [D]days

[Interlude 1]
[G][G][D][D]
[A][A][D][D]

[Verse 2]
[D]Grandpa, everything is [G]changing fast
We call it [D]progress, but I just don't [A]know
And [D]Grandpa, let's wander back in[G]to the past
And paint me [D]the picture
[A]of long ago[D]

[Chorus 2]
Did lovers really [G]fall in love to stay
And stand beside each [D]other,
come what may?
Was a promise really [A]something people kept
Not just something they would [D]say
and then forget
Did families really [G]bow their heads to pray
Did daddies really [D]never go away?
Oh, [Em]Grandpa,
[A]tell me 'bout the good old [D]days
Oh, [Em]Grandpa,
[A]tell me 'bout the good old [D]days

[Outro 1]
[G][G][D][D]
[A][A][D][D]
[G][G][D][D]
[A][A][D][D]
Did families really [G]bow their heads to pray
Did daddies really [D]never go away?
[Fade out]
