[Verse 1]
B E Well I remember when I was just children B F#7 A time when people used to treat their neighbor like a fellow man B7 E And them all day singing and them big prayer meetings B F#7 B When a man was proud to walk up and shake his neighbor's hand
[Chorus]
E Lord, you talk about the good times B Talk about the good times C#7 F#7 Oh, if you ever needed help a friend was there E B G#m Some good neighbor, help lift your burden B F#7 B Oh, and the simple joys of life your friends would share
[Verse 2]
B E But the times are harder and the people are changing B F#7 Today most folks couldn't tell you who their next door neighbors are B7 E All the guns are loaded, the front doors are bolted B F#7 B Ain't this old world taking hate and fear just a little too far
[Chorus]
E Let's talk about the good times B Let's talk about the good times C#7 F#7 I wish I could just go back to the days I'm speaking of E B G#m When a friend would meet you, and a smile would greet you B F#7 B What this old world needs now is old fashioned love

B E Well my old granddaddy, God rest his soul now B F#7 Well we had a big long talk together the day he died B7 E He said son, this world is so full of hate and venom B F#7 B And I can't wait to leave this old place and rest on the other side
[Chorus]
E B Oh, you talk about a good time, talk about a good time C#7 F#7 I'm gonna see all the friends I knew in the good old days E We'll have a big hand shaking B G#m And sit and talk together B F#7 B Sit down by the river Jordan and sing our cares away
