As recorded by Bruce Springsteen feat. Sam Moore (From the 2022 Album ONLY THE STRONG SURVIVE) [Intro] G C G C G [Verse 1]
G
I woke up feeling the sunshine

                     Am
Drift across my face

Am
It took me back to emotions

Am
From another time and place

      G
Those yesterdays

Em             G
Cruising in my Chevrolet

          D
I held my baby in my arms

       C
But my first love was always those songs
[Chorus]
                  G    C
I'm talkin' 'bout soul days

                               G     C G   C G
Talkin' about those sweet soul days
[Verse 2]
G
I crawled out of bed real slowly

                             Am
Threw on some old blue jeans

Am
I found my favorite T-shirt

Am
And started rollin' up my sleeves

     G
Like James Dean

Em             G
Thinkin' I was still nineteen

         D
I walked outside and looked around

         C
My heart was pumping when I found
[Chorus]
                G    C
It's gonna be a soul day

C
I laid back sunning

                  G
Sweet summer soul days
[Bridge]
                   Bm
Think I'll take my baby for a ride

Em
Down to the back road

C
Out in the country

C
Where the summer winds blow

Bm
Over by the river

          Em
There's a barbecue shack

C
Otis on the jukebox

                        Em
You know, I like it like that

   D
Oh yeah
[Chorus]
G    C
Soul days

C
Dancin' with my baby

                          G
Swayin' to the sweet soul days
[Interlude] G C G [Verse 3]
G
And when the sun goes down

                            Am
And we're on the road again

Am
Those white lines runnin' down the highway

Am
Slowly reelin' us in

         G
With the radio on

Em              G
Swinging to the sweet soul songs

        D
And the music's playin' through the night

C
Takin' us back to when everything was alright
[Chorus]
G    C
Soul days

                                      G
Talkin' about those sweet summer soul days

                  C
I'm talkin' 'bout soul days

G                                       C
I'm going back to the sweet summer soul days
[Outro]
G
Soul days

G
Soul days

             C
I wanna hear some Wilson Pickett

               G
And some Joe Tex

                        C
I wanna hear some Sam & Dave

C
Oh, listen here

            G
Hey, Sam, I wanna hear some Aretha

G
I wanna hear some Ray Charles

         C
And some soulful Sam Cooke now

C
What about that

  G
I wanna hear some Arthur Conley

                           C
Well, what about Edwin Starr
