Lyrics and Chords


I had a friend was a big baseball player
Back in high school
He could throw that speed ball by you
Make you look like a fool, boy
Saw him the other night at this roadside bar
I was walkin' in, he was walkin' out
We went back inside, sat down, had a few drinks
But all he kept talkin' about was

Glory days, in the wink of a young girl's eye
Glory days, glory days

{Refrain}

Think I'm going down to the well tonight and I'm going to
Drink 'til I get my fill
And I hope when I get old I don't sit around thinking about it
But I probably will
Yeah just sitting back trying to recapture
A little of the glory, yeah
But time slips away and leaves you with nothing mister
But boring stories of
