Twenty Years Ago
 
 Kenny Rogers
 
[Intro]
G   Gsus4  G   Gsus4
 
[Verse 1]
G           Gsus4             G                       F  C
It's been a long time since I walked through this old town
G                Gsus4             Dsus4    D
But, oh, how the memories start to flow
G                   Gsus4              G                F   C
And there's the old movie house, they finally closed it down
          G                   Gsus4        Dsus4  D      G   Gsus4 G   Gsus4
You could find me there every Friday night twenty years ago
 
[Verse 2]
G            Gsus4          G                   F    C
I worked the counter at the drugstore down the street
G            Gsus4             Dsus4    D
But nobody's left there I would know
G           Gsus4                 G                    F   C
On Saturday mornings that's where all my friends would meet
G                         Gsus4          Dsus4  D/E   G  Am7  G/B  D
You'd be surprised what a dime would buy twenty years ago
 
[Chorus 1]
       Em                  C                G         Am7  G/B  D
All my memories from those days come gather round me
          Em                C               D
What I'd give if they could take me back in time
       Em                C                Bm                C
Oh, it almost seems like yesterday, where do the good times go?
G                Gsus4  Dsus4 D      G   *Gsus4 G   D Csus4
Life was so much easier twenty years ago
 
[Verse 3]
G                Gsus4       G                   F   C
I guess I should stop by Mr. Johnson's hardware store
G        Gsus4             Dsus4 D
His only son was my friend Joe
G                 Gsus4        G  F C
But he joined the army back in 1964
G                          Gsus4           Dsus4 D      G  Am7  G/B  D
How could we know he would never come back twenty years ago
 
[Chorus 2]
        Em                  C               G        Am7  G/B  D
All my memories from those days come gather round me
          Em                C               D
What I'd give if they could take me back in time
        Em               C                Bm                C
Oh, it almost seems like yesterday, where do the good times go?
G                Gsus4  Dsus4 D      G   Gsus4 G   Gsus4
Life was so much easier twenty years ago
 
[Outro]
       G                  Gsus4    Em    D      G   Gsus4 G   Gsus4
Oh, it almost seems like yesterday twenty years ago
