[Verse 1] [Dm7] Looking back on [G7] when I, [Dm7] was a little [G7] nappy headed [Dm7] boy. [G7][Dm7][G7] [Dm7] Then my only [G7] worry, [Dm7] was for Christmas; [G7] what would be my [Dm7] toy. [G7][Dm7][G7]
[Bridge 1] [A7] Even though we [B7] sometimes [Em7] would not get a [Gm6-355353] thing; [A7] We were happy [B7] with the [Em7] joy the day would [A7#5-5x566x] bring.
[Verse 2] [Dm7] Sneaking out the [G7] back door, To [Dm7] hang out with those [G7] hoodlum friends of [Dm7] mine. [G7][Dm7][G7] [Dm7] Greeted at the [G7] back door, With; "boy, I [Dm7] thought I told you [G7] not to go out- [Dm7] side?" [G7][Dm7][G7]
[Bridge 2] [A7] Tryin' your best to [B7] bring the [Em7] water to you [Gm6] eyes. [A7] Thinkin' it might [B7] stop her, from [Em7] whoopin' your be- [A7#5] hind.
[Chorus 1] I wish those [Dm7] days, [G7] could, [Dm7] come back once [G7] more, Why did those [Dm7] days, [G7] e [Dm7] ver have to [G7] go?

[Verse 3] [Dm7] Brother says he's [G7] tellin', [Dm7] 'Bout you playing [G7] doctor with that [Dm7] girl. [G7][Dm7][G7] [Dm7] Just don't tell; I'll [G7] give you, [Dm7] Anything you [G7] want in this whole wide [Dm7] world. [G7][Dm7][G7]
[Bridge 3] [A7] Mama gives you [B7] money, [Em7] for Sunday [Gm6] school, [A7] You trade yours for [B7] candy, [Em7] after church is [A7#5] through.
[Verse 4] [Dm7] Smokin' ciga- [G7] rettes and, And [Dm7] writing something [G7] nasty on the [Dm7] wall, [G7] (you nasty [Dm7] boy!) [G7] [Dm7] Teacher sends you [G7] to the [Dm7] principals of [G7] fice down the [Dm7] hall. [G7]
[Bridge 4] [A7] You grow up and [B7] learn that, [Em7] kinda thing ain't [Gm6] right. [A7] But while you were [B7] doin' it; it [Em7] sure felt outta [A7#5] sight.
[Chorus 2] I wish those [Dm7] days, [G7] could, [Dm7] come back once [G7] more, Why did those [Dm7] days, [G7] e - [Dm7] ver have to [G7] go?
