[Verse]
G  
Saturday morning and it's time to go
One day these could be the days but who could have known
D9 
Loading in the back of a pickup truck
Riding with the boys and pushing the luck
G  
Singing songs loud on the way to the game
Wishing all the things could still be the same
D9 
Chinese homeruns over the backstop
Kakua on the ball and soda pop well...

[Chorus]
Em         A7
We used to laugh a lot
   C
But only because we thought
     G               D9              G     D9
That everything good always would remain
G                              D9              G    D9
Nothing's gonna change there's no need to complain

G   D9
G   D9

[Verse]
G  
Sunday morning and it's time to go
Been raining all night so everybody knows
D9 
Over to the field for tackle football
Big hits, big hats, yeah give me the ball
G  
Rain is pouring, touchdown scoring
Keep on rolling, never boring
D9 
Karma, karma, karma chameleon
We're talking kinda funny from helium

[Chorus]
Em         A7
We used to laugh a lot
   C
But only because we thought
     G               D9              G     D9
That everything good always would remain
G                              D9              G     D9
Nothing's gonna change there's no need to complain

[Verse]
G 
Monday morning and it's time to go
Wet trunks and schoolbooks and sand on my toes
D9 
Do anything you can to dodge the bus-stop blues
Like driving a padiddle with a burnt-out fuse
G  
My best friend Kimi wants to go with you
So meet her by the sugar mill after school
D9 
My best friend Kimi wants to go with you
Meet her by the sugar mill after school

[Chorus]
Em         A7
We used to laugh a lot
   C
But only because we thought
     G               D9              G     D9
That everything good always would remain
Em         A7
We used to laugh a lot
   C
But only because we thought
     A7
That everything good always would
C
Everything good always would remain
