[D] [A] was a [D] big baseball player [A] back in [D] high school.
[A] He could throw [D] that speedball higher, [A] make you look
like [D] a fool boy.
[E] Some of the other night at this roadside bar I was [D] walking in, he was walking out.
We [E] went back inside, sat down, had a few drinks, [D] but Ollie kept talking [E] her loud [A] story.
[D] Well, it passed you by [A] glory days, [D] and the way the young girls are [A] glory days, [E] glory [A] days.
[D] [G]
[D] Well, [A] there's a girl that [D] lives up the block.
Back [A] in school she could turn all the [D] boys heads.
[A] Sometimes on a Friday [D] I'll stop by and have a few [A] drinks.
After she put [D] her kids to bed, [E] her and her husband Bobby, well, they split [D] up.
I guess it's two years
gone by now.
We just [E] sit around talking about the old times.
She says when [D] she feels like crying,
she starts [Bm] laughing, laughing about [A] glory days.
[D] Yeah, it passed you [G] by [D] glory [A] days,
[D] and the way the young girls are [A] glory days, [D] [A] glory [E]
[A] days.

[A] [D] [E]
[D] I'm going down well tonight, [A] drink till I get my [D] fill, [A] and I hope when I get old I don't
[D] sit around thinking about [A] it.
But I [D] probably will.
Yeah, [E] just sitting back, trying to recapture
[D] little Gloria.
Well, [E] time slips away and leaves you with nothing but [D] mystery, but boring [E] stories of [A] glory days.
[D] Yeah, [G] it passed you by [D] glory [A] days, [D] and the way the young girls are glory [A] days, [D] [E] glory [A] days.
[D] Yeah, it passed you by glory [A] days, [D] and the way the young girls are glory [A] days, [D] [A] glory [E] days.

[D] [A] [D] yeah.
Oh [A] yeah.
[D]
[A] Woo.
[D] Woo.
[A] Woo.
[D] Keep [A] [D] it rocking now.
[A] You know I'm gone, [D] but you're the whole [A] house.
[D] [G]
[D] We're in [A] it all.
[D] Yeah.
