Me and the Boys
Charlie Daniels
By Matt Minglewood

This represents my own work although crude it attempts to lay out a great song. Your
will be appreciated. Can't find anything out there on this one. It's a gem!

G		    D
Remember back when we were young
Em		    C
And all the crazy things that we have done
G		    D
Me and the Boys out skipping school
Em		    C
Back on the hill acting a fool
G		    D
Yes its so easy to remember when
Em		    C
Everything was so simple then
G		    D
We never worried about the money we spent
C
When you ain’t got no money
C			   G   >    Em
You don’t care where it went

Chorus
Em			D			G
Feel the wind running through our hair as we ride
Em			D		C
Running so fast not even time could hold us
Em			D	    G    >   C
Young and free we had nothing to hide
G				 D                 C
And we were doing all the things that nobody told us

Verse
G	        	D
Summer days when there weren’t any courses
Em                   	C
Down at the creek riding make believe horses
G			D
Acting out westerns that they had seen
Em			C
Down at the picture show movie screen
G			D
One year later feeling 5 years older
Em			C
Still scared of the girls but we were acting much bolder
G			D
And in the evening when the sun went down
C				   G
Back street, make out, fooling around

G	   D
Me and the Boys
Em         C
Me and the Boys
G	   D
Me and the Boys
Em	   C
Me and the Boys

G			D
Cruisin around in a ’57 dodge
Em			C
Boys all checking out the noisy ride
G			D
Backyard mechanics each and every one
C			         G >>>>>Em
It was greezy work but damn it was fun

G	   D
Me and the Boys
Em         C
Me and the Boys
G          D
Me and the Boy
