Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
This [Am]is a great piece
[C]of music.
Because every[Am]body's always talking
about the good old [F]days.
You know, the good old days,
the [C]good old days.
So let's [G]talk about the good [C]old days.
As bad as they are,
these will be the good
old days for our children.
So why don't we just try to remember
the kind [F]of [G]September
[F]And[C] lif[Em]e was[Am] slow, and[Dm] oh so mellow,
[G]try [Em]to remember,[A]
[Dm]and if you r[G]emember, then [C]follow.
[Am]I wonder why it seem[Dm]s
that the [G]past was always better,
the winters [C]were warmer,
the grass was [Am]greener,
[C]and the skies were bluer,
and the [Csus4]smiles were so much brighter.
[F]Could it be it was [Em]all so [Dm]simple then,
[Em]or has time rewritten every li[A]ne?
[Dm]And if we had the chance
to do [Gsus4]it all ag[G]ain,
tell me [C]would [Am]we, [Dm]could [G]we?[C]
Memor[Dm]ies light the corner
[Am]s of my [G]mind[F]
[Em]Misty water -colored
[E]mem[Am]ories[Dm]
[Gsus4]Of the way we wer[C]e[Dm][F]
[G]Scattered [C]pictures of [F]the
smiles [G]we left [Am]behind
[F]Smiles [Em]we gave t[E]o one an[Am]other
[F]for the way [Gsus4]we were[C][Csus4][C]
[F]Or could it be it was[Em] all so sim[Dm]ple then
[Em]Or has time rewritten every li[Am]ne[A]
[Dm]And if we had the chance to do it al[F]l again
[G]Tell [C]me would we,
[Ab]would [Absus4]we[Ab][Db]
Memories [Gb]may be [Absus4]beauti ful[Ab]
an[Bbm]d yet[Ab][Db]
[Gb]What's [Bb]too painf[Fm]ul to re[F]memb[Bbm]er
[Gb]We simply ch[F]oose to fo[Bbm]rget
[Gb]So it's the la[Fm]ughter we
[Gb]will[Bbm] remem[Gb]ber[Fm]
[Gb]Well, we remembe[Fm]r the [Bbm]way we[Ebm] were[Db]
[Bbm][Ebm][Absus4][Ab][Db][Gb][Fm]
[Gb]Remem[Absus4]ber the way[Ab]
we [Gb]were[Db][Gb][Db]
Ah, you're beautiful.
