1. I had a friend, was a big baseball player      back in highschool,

A                                      D              A                                     D

    he could throw that speedball by,    make you look like a fool.

E

     Saw him the other night at this roadside bar,

                          D

    I was walking in, he was walking out.

                     E

    We went back inside, sat down, had a few drinks,

           D                               E

    but all we kept talking about

 

            A                          D                             A

Glory days, yeah, they'll pass you by,  glory days,

                           D                                 A               E-A    - D

                       A                                                D

    back in school she could turn all the boys heads.

    Sometimes on Friday I'll stop by and have a few drinks,

A                                          D

                         E

    We just sit around talking about the old times,

                             A                             D

    and I'm gonna     drink till I get` my fill.

        A                                                  D

    I hope when I get older I don't sit around thinking about it,

A                          D

    but I probably will.

                     E                                                            D

    Yeah, just    sitting back trying to recapture a little of the glory of.
