C F C
When I recall just how it felt
F G
When I went walking down by the lake
C F C
My soul was free, my heart awake
C F C
When I walked down into the town
C F C
The mountain air was fresh and clear
F G
The sun was up behind the hill
C F C
It felt so good to be alive
C F C
On that morning in spring
C F C
I want to sing this song for you
F G
I want to lift your spirits high
C F C
And in my soul I want to feel
C F C
The beauty of the days gone by
C F C
The beauty of the days gone by
F G
It brings a longing to my soul
C F C
To contemplate my own true self
C F C
And keep me young as I grow old
C F C
The beauty of the days gone by
F G
The music that we used to play
C F C
So lift your glass and raise it high
C F C
To the beauty of the days gone by
C F C
I'll sing it from the mountain top
F G
Down to the valley down below
C F C
Because my cup doth overflow
C F C
With the beauty of the days gone by
C F C
The mountain glen where we used to roam
F G
The gardens there by the railroad track
C F C
Oh my memory it does not lie
C F C
Of the beauty of the days gone by
C F C
The beauty of the days gone by
F G
It brings a longing to my soul
C F C
To contemplate my own true self
C F C
And keep me young as I grow old
C F C
And keep me young as I grow old
C F C
And keep me young as I grow old
C F C
And keep me young as I grow old
