     D         G     D 
Long ago, when I was small 
                     A 
Before computers and TV 
   D                   G           D 
We made it with hardly anything at all 
                        A     D 
How we did, is hard for me to see 

                           G       D 
We had coal oil lights and heating stoves 
                               A 
Lanterns and hand pumped water wells 
        D           G          D 
Stacked firewood in long, long rows 
                A            D 
It was not easy I am here to tell 

             G    D 
And when you were sick 
                       A 
The doctor came to see you 
     D              G      D 
Most people couldnt get to town 
            A       D 
So the town came to you 

                        G         D 
We had the huckster man every few days 
                                              A 
Brought candy, coal-oil, cough syrup and shoe strings 
  D                   G        D 
A few farm fresh eggs paid our way 
                   A     D 
So we did get some extra things 

                  G        D 
Some pine for the good ole days 
                  G        A 
I have lived both then and now 
            D      G D 
Considering all in I say 
             A              D 
The good ole days are right now
