D B7
Em C Am D B7
If ever you think about the happiest days of your life
Em C
Cast back your mind for a while
Am D D B7
And remember the time when you were a child.
Em D C A7
Don't think of the things that make you sad
G D C
JUst remember the good times you had.
G B7
Do you remember only happy days,
Em C
Full of flaming Junes and summer holidays?
G D
Or do you remember those stormy Novembers
C G
When we walked in the wind and the rain?
G B7
Schooldays were such happy days,
Em C
Now they seem so far away,
G D D B7
I remember and I'll always treasure.
Em C Am D B7
School days were the happiest days of your life
Em C Am
But we never appreciate the good times we have
D B7
Until its too late.

Em D C A7
I miss all the acquantances we made
G D C
And I'd go back if i could only find a way,
G B7
Schooldays were the happiest days
Em C
Though at the time they filled me with dismay.
G D D B7
We only remember what we choose to remember.
Em C A7
When I was a schoolboy I loathed
D B7
regulations and rules,
Em C A7
I hated my textbooks and my school uniform
D B7
Cos' it made me conform,
Em D C A7
And teachers were always disobeyed,
G D C
But I'd go back if I could only find a way.
G B7
School days were the happiest days,
Em C
Now they seem so far away.
G D D B7
I remember and I'll always treasure,
Em C Am D B7
School days were the happiest days of your life
Em C Am
But we never appreciate the good times that we hav
D B7
Until it's too late.
Em D C A7
Now I wish I hadn't strayed
G D C
And I'd go back if I could only find a way.
G
Schooldays.
