In the Day
Thornton/Davis
Beautiful Door
INTRO: Em G D
Em G
Do you remember in the day
D
All our crazy summer ways
Em G
And those guys that were our friends
Em G
The red and yellow windy falls
D
When we seemed to have it all
Em G
And it was never gonna end
The girls we loved that came and went
All the idle time we spent
Playin' records that we'd borrowed
And now it kinda hurts to think
Every time I take a drink
That this would be tomorrow
CHORUS:
D C G
I don't see nothin' wrong with dreaming
D C G
Unless that's all you seem to do
D C G
Something's wrong when you can't find meaning
D C G
Since nineteen seventy-two
D C G
I'm not sure if it's me that needs changing
D C G
Maybe we had a better way
D C G
But then the world always needed re-arranging
Em G D
Even back in the day
Em G D
Even back in the day
INTRO
They've turned the Ritz into a mall
And tore down the Big and Tall
But the ghosts still wander Main Street
They took away the Mom and Pop
There's a seven acre stop
Where you buy new tires and bed sheets
Paula's record shop is gone
It died a little with each song
That was written by committee
And now the stars don't really shine
They steal the glow we left behind
In a time they never did see
CHORUS
INTRO out
