One Of Those Days

• E

 
Intro E - A - E - A 
 
 
E 
Looks like it's gonna be one of those days, 
A 
Sittin here in traffic, twenty minutes late, 
E 
Just about then that ole DJ plays, 
  C#m                B 
A song that takes me back, 
 
 
(verse 2) 
E 
Had a beat up car with a new tape deck, 
 A 
A pure jumpshot, nothin but net, 
C#m                       B 
A three piece band and a Gibson firebrand, 
     A                         B 
The first song I learned was Sweet Home Alabam, 
 
 
(chorus) 
 
E 
Summer out of school we were Six or Seventeen, 
A 
You wrapped some tape around my new class ring, 
            C#m   B            A 
And life was so fine, Back in those times, 
E 
Drinkin them ponies up on tiger hill, 
A 
Yea I miss it, Hey I wish it, wasn't over still, 
   A               E   
I don't want to go back to stay but, 
  F#m            B                       E 
What I wouldn't give for, one of those days, 
 
 
(verse 3) 
 
I don't know exactly how I got where I am, 
From those old back roads to this traffic jam, 
Wishin I could find me an exit ramp, 
And just keep right on goin, 
 
(verse 4) 
 
I wonder if you ever hear an old song, 
And think about us when you're singin along, 
Commin home and tellin your mom and paw, 
About all them movies we never saw, 
 
 
(chorus) 
Summer out of school we were Six or Seventeen, 
You wrapped some tape around my new class ring, 
And life was so fine, Back in those times, 
Drinkin them ponies up on tiger hill, 
Yea I miss it, Hey I wish it, 
Wasn't over still, 
I don't want to go back to stay but, 
What I wouldn't give for, one of those days, 
 
(bridge) 
D                       A 
One of those days, When one of these days, 
E 
Comes along, 
D                       A 
One of those days that just don't seem, 
       F#m C#m A B 
so far gone,          Take me home now 
 
  Lead - E Eb D C A Ab F# B 
 
 
(ending chorus) 
 
E 
Summer out of school we were Six or Seventeen, 
        A 
We were datin barely waitin, 
 
We were full of our dreams, 
             C#m  B            A 
And life was so fine, Back in those times, 
E 
Bringin them ponies up on tiger hill, 
A 
Yea I miss it, Hey I wish it, wasn't over still, 
   A               E   
I don't want to go back to stay but, 
  F#m            B 
I am the man I am today, 
    A                       E 
But sometimes time turns a yearbook page, 
     F#m              B                   E    
What I wouldn't give for, one of those days, 
 
(Ending chords are E - A)
