Here's the song, I got the rest here from another website, but these barre chords sound better.

G

Saturday morning and it's time to go

One of these could be the days but who could'a known

D7

Loadin' in the back of a pick-up truck

Ridin' with the boys and pushing their luck

G

Singin' songs loud on the way to the game

Wishing all the things could still be the same

D7

China's homeruns over the backstop

Ke kua on the barb and soda pop

CHORUS

E          G

We used to laugh a lot

   C          

But only because we thought

G                    D7           G      D7      

That everything good always would remain

G                           D7          G        D7

Nothing gonna change there's no need to complain

(Repeat INTRO just once on each chord)

G

Sunday morning and this time they're going

Been raining all night so everybody knows

D7

Over to the field for tackle football

Big hits, big hats, yeah give me the ball

G

Rain is pouring, touchdown scoring

Keep on rolling, never boring

D7

Karma, karma, karma chameleon

We're talking kinda funny from helium

(repeat CHORUS from above)

We used to laugh a lot

But only because we thought

That everything good always would remain

Nothing gonna change there's no need to complain

G

Monday morning and this time they're going

Wet trunks and schoolbooks and sand on my toes

D7

Do anything you can to dodge the bus-stop blues

They're driving a padidle with a burnt-out fuse

G

My best friend Kenny wants to go with you

So meet him by the sugar mill after school

D7

My best friend Kimmy wants to go with you

Meet her by the sugar mill after school

(repeat CHORUS as before)

We used to laugh a lot

But only because we thought

That everything good always would remain

(THEN)

(CHORUS type 2)

E          G

We used to laugh a lot

   C          

But only because we thought

A                    

That everything good always would

C                            G       D7

Everything good always would remain

(repeat INTRO into fade out)
