Golden Days

Chords

Low-G Tuning

Em
I found a pile of Polaroids
                            C
In the crates of a record shop
                              G
They were sexy, sexy looking back
                          B7
From a night that time forgot
           Em                       C
Boy he was something debonair in 1979
                            G
And she had Farrah Fawcett hair
                     B7
Carafes of blood red wine
C            Em
In the summertime
C            B7
In the summertime
 
Pre-Chorus:
             G               B7              Em    C
Oh don't you wonder when the light begins to fade?
        G                    B7             Em   C
And the clock just makes the colors turn to grey
        G                B7             Em   C
Forever younger, growing older just the same
        G                B7              Em   C
All the memories that we make will never change
 
Chorus:
           G                              B7     
We'll stay drunk, we'll stay tan, let the love remain
      Em                     C                G     B7
And I swear that I'll always paint you golden days
       Em   C
Golden days
       G    B7
Golden days
       Em   C
Golden days
 
Verse:
           Em                                        C
I bet they met some diplomats on Bianca Jagger's new yacht
                           G
With their caviar and dead cigars
                  B7
The air was sauna hot
           Em
I bet they never even thought about
                           C
The glitter dancing on the skin
                               G
The decades might've washed it out
                           B7
As the flashes popped like pins
C            Em
In the summertime
C            B7
In the summertime
 
Pre-Chorus:
             G               B7              Em    C
Oh don't you wonder when the light begins to fade?
        G                    B7             Em   C
And the clock just makes the colors turn to grey
        G                B7             Em   C
Forever younger, growing older just the same
        G                B7              Em   C
All the memories that we make will never change
 
Chorus:
           G                              B7     
We'll stay drunk, we'll stay tan, let the love remain
      Em                     C                G     B7
And I swear that I'll always paint you golden days
       Em   C
Golden days
       G    B7
Golden days
       Em   C
Golden days
 
Bridge:
Am
Time can never break your heart
          D
But It'll take the pain away
      Am                 G
Right now our future's certain
        Cm
I won't let it fade away
