Verse 1:
G                    Am 
Well, I lived on the outskirts of town 
G                Am 
In an eight room farm-house, baby 
G                    Am 
When my brothers and friends were around 
G                Am 
There was always something doin 
Em                      Bm 
Had me a couple of real nice girlfriends 
Am                   C 
Stopped by to see me once in a while 
Em                  Bm 
When I think back a-bout those days 
Am              C                G 
All I can do is sit and smile 
  
G             Am 
That when a smoke was a smoke 
G                Am 
And groovin was groovin 
G                 Am 
And dancin meant everything 
G                 Am 
We were young and we were improvin 
G                   Am 
Laughin, laughin, with our friends 
G                   Am 
Holdin hands meant somethin, baby 
G                 Am 
Outside the club Cherry Bomb, 
G               Am 
Our hearts were really thumpin, 
Am            G       Am   C/D   Am 
Say yeah, yeah, yeah 
N.C.                 G Am 
Say yeah, yeah, yeah  


Verse 2:
The winter days they last forever 
But the weekends went by so quick 
Went ridin around this little country town 
We were goin nuts girl, out in the sticks 
One night, me with my big mouth 
A couple guys had to put me in my place 
When I see those guys these days 
We just laugh and say, Do you remember when? 

G             Am 
That when a smoke was a smoke 
G                Am 
And groovin was groovin 
G                 Am 
And dancin meant everything 
G                 Am 
We were young and we were improvin 
G                   Am 
Laughin, laughin, with our friends

Holdin hands meant somethin, baby

Verse 3:
Now, seventeen has turned thirty-five 
I surprised that we still livin 
If we done any wrong 
I hope that we forgiven 
Got a few kids of my own 
And some days I still don know what to do 
I hope that they not laughin too loud 
When they hear me talkin like this to you
