[C]Watching while some [G]old friends do a line,
Holding back the want to in my [G]own addicted [C]mind.
Wishing it was [C7]still a thing [F]even I could [C]do,[C/B] [Am] [G] [F]
[C]Wishing all these [G]old things were [C]new.
Watching while some [G]young men go to [C]jail,
And they show it all on TV just to [G]see somebody [C]fail.
And I guess there's not a [C7]single thing
A [G]man like me can [C]do,[C/B] [Am] [G] [F]
[C]Wishing all these [G]old things were [C]new.
[G]Wishing all these old things were [C]new,
Good [F]times like the roaring '[C]20s and the [Am]roaring '80s [D]too.[G]
[F]Thinking about the good old days, be[C]fore it [C/B]all [Am]fell [G]thro[F]ugh,
[C]Wishing all these [G]old things were [C]new.
[C]INST[G]RUME[C]NTAL[G] [C] [C7] [F] [C] [C/B] [Am] [G] [F] [C] [G] [C]
The kids don't want my [G]cigarettes a[C]round,
They say its time that dad should [G]lay tobacco [C]down.
But if I could start all [C7]over,
Guess I'd [F]still do what I [C]do,[C/B] [Am] [G] [F]
[C]Wishing all these [G]old things were [C]new.
[G]Wishing all these old things were [C]new,
Good [F]times like the roaring '[C]20s and the [Am]roaring '80s [D]too.[G]
[F]Thinking about the good old days, be[C]fore it [C/B]all [Am]fell [G]thro[F]ugh,
[C]Wishing all these [G]old things were [C]new.
Wishing all these [G]old things were [C]new.
