THE BOYS WE WERE
WADE SAPP
INTRO:
Am C G F Am
VERSE:
Am
I stare at old pictures
C
Think about the boys we were
G
When I could still quote scripture
F Am
And he'd partake of the earth
Am
We were pathetic po' folks
C
Just a faded six of spades
G
Society was the cold spokes
F Am
That smacked us in the face
G
Said stay in place
VERSE:
Am C
In the cobwebs of my abused brain it was North Caroline
G F Am
The last time that I saw his face 'fore he pissed away his prime
Am C
No matter how I try to fight he drops into my dreams
G
The nightmare veers towards violence
F Am
And I'm awakened by the scenes
G G
And to think
CHORUS;
Am
God it was a good day
C
I almost didn't feel pain
G
I almost didn't hear a train
Am
I almost didn't let it rain
Am
I almost thought that I was sane
C
I always thought that this could change
G
I always thought it was a dream
Am C G F Am
God it was a good daaaa-ay
VERSE:
Am
He was balanced on a bar stool
C
Slammin' Xanax down with beer
G
Struggling not to argue
F Am
With the demon in his ear
Am
That friend told him with a crooked grin
C
I need your help tonight
G
You just give me a hand you'll make eight grand
F Am
But my brother just declined
G
For a time
VERSE:
Am
So like a rattlesnake life bends and shakes
C
Fate ain't always kind
G
When your mouth is filled with fatal fangs
F Am
And poison's in your mind
Am
So they slithered inside and shots were fired
C
In the roof and in the floor
G
They got the loot and moved their boots
F Am
Straight through a jail house door
G
And what's more
CHORUS;
Am
God it was a good day
C
He almost didn't feel pain
G
He almost didn't hear a train
Am
He almost didn't let it rain
Am
He always thought that he was sane
C
He always thought that he could change
G
He almost thought it was a dream
Am C
John it was a good daaa-ay-aaay
G F Am
Now it aiiiiiiin't
OUTRO:
Am C
So I stare at old pictures think about the men we'll be
G F Am
I bust open those blisters and pray for his release
