A                        D
I had a friend was a big baseball player
A            D
back in high school
A                   D
He could throw that speedball by you
A                    D
Make you look like a fool boy
E
Saw him the other night at this roadside bar
                                 D
I was walking in, he was walking out
        E
We went back inside sat down had a few drinks
    D                    E
but all he kept talking about was

[Chorus]

      A                 D
Glory days well they'll pass you by
      A                     D
Glory days in the wink of a young girl's eye
      A           E     A   D
Glory days, glory days

[Verse 2]

A                              D
Well there's a girl that lives up the block
        A                                   D
back in school she could turn all the boy's heads
A                          D
Sometimes on a Friday I'll stop by
                       A                         D
and have a few drinks, after she put her kids to bed
E
Her and her husband Bobby well they split up
             D
I guess it's two years gone by now
E
We just sit around talking about the old times,
         D
she says when she feels like crying
                              E
she starts laughing thinking about

[Chorus]

      A                 D
Glory days yeah they'll pass you by
      A                     D
Glory days in the wink of a young girl's eye
      A           E      A   D
Glory days, glory days

[Break]

E E D E

[Verse 3] (Palm Mute)

A                             D
Think I'm going down to the well tonight
                A                   D
and I'm going to drink till I get my fill
     A                                   D
And I hope when I get old I don't sit around thinking about it
A             D
but I probably will
          E
Yeah, just sitting back trying to recapture
  D                            E
a little of the glory of, well time slips away

and leaves you with nothing mister but
D              E
boring stories of

[Chorus]

      A                 D
Glory days yeah they'll pass you by
      A                     D
Glory days in the wink of a young girl's eye
      A           E
Glory days, glory days
A             D
 Well they'll pass you by
      A                     D
Glory days in the wink of a young girl's eye
      A           E
Glory days, glory days

[Outro]

A         D
All right Oh Yeah       they'll pass you by
A            D
Oh all right Oh Yeah
