                         THE BOYS WE WERE
                            WADE SAPP

INTRO:
Am    C    G    F  Am

VERSE:
   Am
I stare at old pictures
        C
Think about the boys we were
     G
When I could still quote scripture
          F              Am
And he'd partake of the earth

    Am
We were pathetic po' folks
        C
Just a faded six of spades
   G
Society was the cold spokes
      F                 Am
That smacked us in the face

              G
Said stay in place


VERSE:
        Am                                C
In the cobwebs of my abused brain it was North Caroline
     G                                      F               Am
The last time that I saw his face 'fore he pissed away his prime

    Am                           C
No matter how I try to fight he drops into my dreams
     G
The nightmare veers towards violence
          F              Am
And I'm awakened by the scenes

        G    G
And to think


CHORUS;
              Am
God it was a good day
                 C
I almost didn't feel pain
                 G
I almost didn't hear a train
                Am
I almost didn't let it rain

                      Am
I almost thought that I was sane
                       C
I always thought that this could change
                     G
I always thought it was a dream
              Am        C    G    F  Am
God it was a good daaaa-ay


VERSE:
        Am
He was balanced on a bar stool
          C
Slammin' Xanax down with beer
 G
Struggling not to argue
          F           Am
With the demon in his ear

      Am
That friend told him with a crooked grin
   C
I need your help tonight
          G
You just give me a hand you'll make eight grand
        F               Am
But my brother just declined

       G
For a time


VERSE:
           Am
So like a rattlesnake life bends and shakes
 C
Fate ain't always kind
           G
When your mouth is filled with fatal fangs
     F                Am
And poison's in your mind

         Am
So they slithered inside and shots were fired
        C
In the roof and in the floor
      G
They got the loot and moved their boots
          F                    Am
Straight through a jail house door

            G
And what's more


CHORUS;
              Am
God it was a good day
                  C
He almost didn't feel pain
                  G
He almost didn't hear a train
                 Am
He almost didn't let it rain

                       Am
He always thought that he was sane
                       C
He always thought that he could change
                      G
He almost thought it was a dream
               Am           C
John it was a good daaa-ay-aaay
        G    F  Am
Now it aiiiiiiin't


OUTRO:
      Am                           C
So I stare at old pictures think about the men we'll be
   G                            F              Am
I bust open those blisters and pray for his release
