Tim McGraw - Back When

From "Live Like You Were Dying" (2004)
(Jeff Stevens, Stephony Smith, Stan Lynch)

INTRO:  [G]   [D]   [Am]   [C]

[G]Don't you remember, the [D]fizz in a pepper
[Am]Peanuts in a bottle at [G]ten, two and [D]four
A [G]fried bologna sandwich with [D]mayo and tomato
[Am]Sittin' round the table don't [G]happen much any[D]more
We got [Em]too complicated It's all [A7]way over-rated
I like the [C]old and out-dated way of [D]life

CHORUS:
[G]Back when a [D]hoe was a hoe
[C]Coke was a coke
And [G]crack's what you were doing
When you were cracking [D]jokes
[G]Back when a [D]screw was a screw
The [C]wind was all that blew
And [G]when you said I'm down with that
Well it meant you had the [D]flu
I miss back [Am]when
I miss back [C]when
I miss back [G]when  [D]

[G]I love my records, [D]black, shiny vinyl
[Am]Clicks and pops and white noise, [G]man they sounded [D]fine
[G]I had my favorite stations, [D]the ones that played them all
[Am]Country, soul and rock-and-roll what [G]happened to those [D]times?
I'm readin' [Em]Street Slang For Dummies cause they put [A7]pop in my country
I want [C]more for my money, the [D]way it was back [G..]then

CHORUS

INSTRUMENTAL:  [..G]   [D]   [Am]   [G]   [D] 

Give me a [Em]flat top for strumming
I want the [A7]whole world to be humming
[C]Just keep it coming, the [D]way it was back [G]then

CHORUS

I miss back [Am]when, I miss back [C]when
