When I was young I'd listen to the radio
C#m C#m7 A7M
Waitin' for my favorite songs
C#m F#m7
When they played I'd sing along
A B7 A/B
It made me smile
E Abm
Those were such happy times and not so long ago
C#m C#m7 A7M
How I wondered where they'd gone
F#m C#m Abm
But they're back again just like a long lost friend
A F#m A/B
All the songs I loved so well
E
Every sha-la-la-la
C#m
Every wo-oh-wo-oh
E C#m
Still shines
E
Every shing-ling-a-ling
C#m A7M A/B
That they're starting to sing so fine
C#m
When they get to the part
Ab#5/C#
Where he's breakin' her heart
A7M C#m7
It can really make me cry
E A/B
Just like before
E7M
It's yesterday once more
A/B E7M A/B
(shooby-doo-lang-lang, shooby-doo-lang-lang)
E Abm
Lookin' back on how it was in years gone by
C#m C#m7 A7M
And the good times that I had
C#m Abm
Makes today seem rather sad
A7M F#m B7 A/B
So much has changed
E Abm
It was songs of love that I would sing to them
C#m C#m7 A7M
And I'd memorize each word
F#m C#m Abm
Those old melodies still sound so good to me
A F#m A/B
As they melt the years away
E
Every sha-la-la-la
C#m
Every wo-oh-wo-oh
E C#m
Still shines (oldies, oldies, but goodies)
E
Every shing-ling-a-ling
C#m A7M A/B
That they're starting to sing so fine
C#m
All my best memories
Ab#5/C#
Come back clearly to me
A7M C#m7
Some can even make me cry
E A/B
Just like before
E7M A/B
It's yesterday once more
E
Every sha-la-la-la
C#m
Every wo-oh-wo-oh
E C#m
Still shines
E
Every shing-ling-a-ling
C#m A A/B
That they're starting to sing so fine
E
Every sha-la-la-la
