Those Old Times
verse 1:
G C D G
I said I'd set out and I'd do it with a smile,
G C D
but say the word and I will stay a little while.
G C D Em
I said I'd stay with you and go that extra mile.
C
But did I set out wrong?
D
Did I stand by and wait too long?
verse 2:
I aint sayin' it aint what I want to do.
If I had my way this old house would be brand new.
I ain't saying now that I can't be with you,
but I think I can find
a way to help make up my mind
chorus:
Em C D Em
I listen for a sound and I listen for a sign,
Em C D
I listen to the ground beneath me fall away behind.
Em C D Em
I'm wishin' that I'd found a way to make it all undwind
C D
I'm missin that old town, I'm missin that old town
Am G/B C
I'm missin that old town, and I am missing.....
D
I'm missing those old times.
verse 3:
What has come to you and what has come to pass
is all a part of one long road that goes too fast.
Who can make a new love strong enough to last?
Who is on my side,
and am I keeping my ears wide open
chorus:
I listen for a sound and I listen for a sign,
I listen to the ground beneath me fall away behind.
I'm wishin' that I found a way to make it all undwind
I'm missin that old town, I'm missin that old town
I'm missin that old town, and I am missing.....
.....I'm missing those old times.
