Bm E A
The boys are grinning from the photograph

It's Friday night and they're trying so hard

The sun is dropping and they want to go
Bm E A
Driving into town to see some girls they know
--------------------
Chorus:
--------------------
E G
The boys, blazing on a summer night
D
Girls they want to watch them ride
F#m
Is that the way it was before?
A
Cause I don't remember
E G
Boys, friends at every bar in town
D
Running all the good days down
F#m
Is that the way it was before?
A
Cause I don't remember

Bm E A
We felt like fighters when we caught the plane

Until that day we'd never heard its name

We did some things we didn't understand

And now we feel like strangers in our own land

This photograph, I hold it when I sleep

Cause people soon stop asking

When I cannot explain what I have seen

Are running all the good days down

Running all the good days down

Running all the good days down

All the good days down
