A  E
 Remember days of yesterday
B
How it flew so fast
    G
The two score and a year we had

Those summer days and west coast dreams

I wished would never end

A young boy and his father
A
Idol and best friend

E
The morning shows on the radio
    B
The case of the missing dog
G
Lying on the pillows at the old eight twelve
A
Watching Harold and Maude
    E
The record shops, the stickball fields
   B
My home away from home
    D
And when we weren't together
    Asus2
The hours on the phone

[Chorus (2)]

F#m           E     Asus2
   I'll always remember

Those were the best of times
E F#m                  E   Asus2

The best of times

   "You can pray      for a change

       But prepare       for the end..."
