E                                  Abm
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
