[D#m7]Looking back on [G#7]when I
[D#m7]Was a little [G#7]nappy headed [D#m7]boy[G#7] [D#m7] [G#7]
[D#m7]Then my only [G#7]worry
[D#m7]Was for Christmas [G#7]what would be my [D#m7]toy[G#7] [D#m7] [G#7]
[A#7]Even though we [C7]sometimes [Fm7]would not get a [G#7]thing
[A#7]We were happy [C7]with the [Fm7]joy the day would [Gm7]bring
[D#m7]Sneaking out the [G#7]back door
To [D#m7]hang out with those [G#7]hoodlum friends of [D#m7]mine [G#7] [D#m7]Ooooh[G#7]
[D#m7]Greeted at the [G#7]back door
With boy, I [D#m7]thought I told you [G#7]not to go out[D#m7]side[G#7] [D#m7] [G#7]
[A#7]Tryin' your [C7]best to bring the [Fm7]water to your [G#7]eyes
[A#7]Thinkin' it might [C7]stop her, from [Fm7]whoopin' your be[Gm7]hind
(Chorus)
I wish those [D#m7]days, [G#7]could, [D#m7]come back once [G#7]more
Why did those [D#m7]days, [G#7]ev [D#m7]ver have to [G#7]go
I wish those [D#m7]days, [G#7]could, [D#m7]come back once [G#7]more
Why did those [D#m7]days, [G#7]ev [D#m7]ver have to [G#7]go
'Cos I love them [D#m7]so
(Interlude)
[D#m7] Do do do do, do [D#m7]do do do, do do do do
[D#m7] Do do do do, do [D#m7]do do do, do do do do
[D#m7]Brother says he's [G#7]tellin'
'[D#m7]Bout you playing' [G#7]doctor with that [D#m7]girl[G#7] [D#m7] [G#7]
[D#m7]Just don't tell I'll [G#7]give you
[D#m7]Anything you [G#7]want in this whole wide [D#m7]world[G#7] [D#m7] [G#7]
[A#7]Mama gives you [C7]money for [Fm7]Sunday [G#7]school
[A#7]You trade yours for [C7]candy [Fm7]after church is [Gm7]through
[D#m7]Smokin' ciga[G#7]rettes and
[D#m7]Writing something [G#7]nasty on the [D#m7]wall ([G#7]you nasty [D#m7]boy)[G#7]
[D#m7]Teacher sends you [G#7]to the [D#m7]principal's [G#7]office down the [D#m7]hall[G#7]
[A#7]You grow up and [C7]learn that, [Fm7]kinda thing ain't [G#7]right
[A#7]But while you were [C7]doin' it, it [Fm7]sure felt outta [Gm7]sight
(Chorus)
I wish those [D#m7]days, [G#7]could, [D#m7]come back once [G#7]more
Why did those [D#m7]days, [G#7]ev [D#m7]ver have to [G#7]go
I wish those [D#m7]days, [G#7]could, [D#m7]come back once [G#7]more
Why did those [D#m7]days, [G#7]ev [D#m7]ver have to [G#7]go
