One day about 25 years from now D D
When we’ve all grown old from a-wondering how G A
Oh we’ll all sit down at the city dump F#m Bm
And talk about the goodle days E A
Oh you’ll pass the joint and I’ll pass the wine F#m Bm
And anything good from a-down the line G A
A lot of good things went down one time F#m Bm
Back in the goodle days G D
[Chorus]
And the goodle days are past and gone, F#m Bm
A lot of good people have done gone on G A
That’s my life when I sing this song about F#m Bm
Back in the goodle days. G D
Sometimes I get to thinking that we’re almost done
And there ain’t nothing left we can figure out
And I guess it must have seemed a lot more like that
Back in the goodle days
But when you gotta go, you gotta go
There’s always somebody don’t you know
Hanging around saying “well I told you so”
Back in the goodle days
Oh we’ll all join hands and we’ll gather round
When that old guitar starts to make that sound
A lot of good things went down downtown
Back in the goodle days
We’s in love with the people that we haven’t even met
Out for anything that we could get
We did it then and we’ll do it yet
Back in the goodle days
