John Prine Way Back Then Chords
[Verse]
G
Night is falling
C
We're doing the things we do
D
You are acting just like me
G
I'm acting just like you
Do you remember
C
When you were my friend?
D
That's the way I'd like things
G
Just like way back then
G
Baby's sleeping
C
Brother is on the run
D
I am out undoing
G
All the good I've done
If you loved me
C
Tell you what I would do
D
Wrap the world in silver foil
G
Bring it home to you
[Instrumental]
G C D G
G C D G
[Verse]
G
Lately I see
C
That I can't pretend
D
I may never ever see
G
The likes of you again
I take a walk, I come back home
C
Then I sit a spell
D
Watch the ponies dance around
G
The empty wishing well
G
Night has fallen
C
I've said the things I did
D
The only baby sleeping
G
Is when I was a kid
Do you remember
C
When you were my friend?
D
That's the way I'd like things
G
Just like way back then
