Back in school, she could turn (C)all the boys’ heads.
Some times on a (C)Fri day, I’ll stop by and have a few drinks be fore she put her (C)kids to bed.
Oh, her and her hus band, Bob by, they split up; I guess it’s two years gone by now.
Oh, (D)we just sit a round talk in’ ’bout the old times.
She (C)says when she feels like cry ing, she starts (D)laugh ing, think ing a bout glo ry days.

Glo ry days,
