Am C
I'm back in my hometown
G
The main street's dying down
F
It's like there's nothing left of it
Am C
No more high school grounds
G
They tore that building down
F
And everything we built, I miss
Am C
I cut off my own friends
G
So lost inside seeing them
F
Feels like were back there instantly, to me
Am C
We all need a chance
G
The backyard fires on
F
And we stop telling tales of how life used to be
F G
The years have come and gone
F
But these stories carry on
G
Looking back, they're better than they used to be
C
Cause you should'a seen the size of the guy's we were fightin'
F
And we shouldn't be alive at the speeds we were driving
Am G F
But momma always taught us never ever to tell a lie
C
And every tenny out there's always turned into twenty
F
Every girl we were with never cost any money
Am G F
And we drank more tequila than any man alive
Bb
And the story goes on
F N.C.
It gets a little better, every time we're together
( C F Am G F )
Am C
It's funny how we change
G
And some things stay the same
D5
God, I miss the glory days, always
Am C
Daylight getting near
G
We shed a few more tears
D5
Lord, I love the memories we've made
F G
The years have come and gone
