[Intro]                       
Emaj7  E6  Emaj7  E6  Esus  E  
[ E - Esus4 - Eadd11 - Esus4 - E ]  (twice)

[Verse]
Emaj7                 E6
I went back home the other day
Emaj7                 E6               Esus E [E - Esus4 - Eadd11 - Esus4 - E]
To see some old friends that I used to know
Emaj7                      E6
It was strange to see what all had changed
Emaj7                 E6               Esus E [E - Esus4 - Eadd11 - Esus4 - E]
Just like me my hometown had to grow
Emaj7                 E6
On lazy Sunday afternoons
Emaj7                 E6               Esus E [E - Esus4 - Eadd11 - Esus4 - E]
We used to drive around the neighborhood
Emaj7                 E6
But as I looked around I see
Emaj7                 E6               Esus E B
That nothing really looks the way it should

[Chorus]
           D       A            E             B
There's a parking lot where the church used to be
         D         A            E      F#
And the old town drunk changed his ways
         D         A            E        B
Still my mind goes wandering down memory lane
        D              A         E
Looking round for the good old days

[Instrumental]
Emaj7  E6  Emaj7  E6  Esus  E  [ E - Esus4 - Eadd11 - Esus4 - E ]  (once)

[Verse]
Emaj7                      E6
My high school sweetheart's married off
Emaj7                 E6          Esus E E - Esus4 - Eadd11 - Esus4 - E
With two kids and another on the way
Emaj7                      E6
And the coach I hardly recognized
Emaj7                 E6                   Esus E B
His thick black hair has slowly turned to grey

[Chorus]
        D       A            E             B
All the debutantes and the homecoming queen
        D       A     E  F#
Have taken kids on to raise
           D       A            E           B
Still my mind goes wandering down memory lane
        D            A            E
Looking round for the good old days

[Verse]
       A                     E
When I find myself romancing now
   B                       E
The way that it used to be
  A                          E
I can't help thinking someday
  B                        E
That it's coming back to me
  A                     E
But I never was the kind
  B                          D
To see the forest for the trees

[Solo over chorus chord progression]

[Verse]
Emaj7             E6
Looking back on yesterday
Emaj7                 E6          Esus E [E - Esus4 - Eadd11 - Esus4 - E]
Never was my favorite thing to do
Emaj7             E6
But that's okay it's just as well
Emaj7                 E6          Esus E B
It seems there's less to hold on to

[Chorus]
           D       A            E             B
There's a parking lot where the church used to be
         D         A            E      F#
And the old town drunk changed his ways
         D         A            E        B
Still my mind goes wandering down memory lane
        D           A         E
Well I hope it's a passing phase
     B
Oh yeah
        D            A        E
Looking back at the good old days
