[Verse 1]
C F C G Gadd11 G Gadd11
We kept ourselves
C F C G Gadd11 G Gadd11
In the yard chasin' flies
C F C G Gadd11 G Gadd11
And that was the best I've felt
C F C G Gadd11 G Gadd11
In a while I wanna let you know
[Chorus]
Fmaj7 C
That I wouldn't change the way it was
G C
Those were the best days, you know?
Fmaj7 C G Gadd11 G Gadd11
And our parents gave us everythin' they had
Fmaj7 C
And I had a thought the other day
G Am
I wonder if he knows
Fmaj7 G
The life he built by showin' me the way
[Post-Chorus]
| C | F C | G Gadd11 | G Gadd11 |

C F C G Gadd11 G Gadd11
This time last year
C F C G Gadd11 G Gadd11
I moved away to a place I knew
C F C G Gadd11 G Gadd11
And that was the hardest thing
C F C G Gadd11 G Gadd11
To have to do, I wanna let you know
[Chorus]
Fmaj7 C
That I wouldn't change the way it was
G C
Those were the best days, you know?
Fmaj7 C G Gadd11 G Gadd11
And our parents gave us everythin' they had
Fmaj7 C
And I had a thought the other day
G Am
I wonder if he knows
Fmaj7 G
The life he built by showin' me the way
[Post-Chorus]

[Bridge]
Fmaj7 Am
And when I reach the dusty roads
Fmaj7 Am G
I'm reminded of how you showed me
Fmaj7 Am
Faith in times of need
Fmaj7 G
And that nothing can replace your family
[Verse 3]
C F C G Gadd11 G Gadd11
Man, I can't believe we're grown
C F C G Gadd11 G Gadd11
But still the same, I had a lot to learn
C F C G Gadd11 G Gadd11
So here's a song saying thanks to you
C F C G Gadd11 G Gadd11
I'm the man I want to be
[Chorus]
Fmaj7 C
And I wouldn't change the way it was
G C
Those were the best days, you know?
Fmaj7 C G Gadd11 G Gadd11
And our parents gave us everythin' they had
Fmaj7 C
And I had a thought the other day
G Am
I wonder if he knows
Fmaj7 G Am
The life he built by showin' me the way
Fmaj7 G
The life he built by showin' me the way
