[Intro] G D C D [Verse 1]
    G       D      G                    D        G
I’m sitting by the fireside and turning back the years

      C              G                 D
I can hear my mother singing in the morning

       G            D       G                      D      G
As she scrubbed our shining faces and then sent us off to school

        C                    G            D  G
All too soon those days were over without warning
[Chorus]
G              C                            G
So sing me the songs of our gold and silver days

G                              D
Days filled with innocence and light

      G                         C              G
Not a penny to our name we were happy just the same

       G        D      G
In our gold and silver days
[Verse 2]
G             D    G                         D        G
In the parlor on a Friday night my dad would took the floor

      C              G                D               
I can hear us join together in the chorus

         G      D       G                         D        G
Singing "Just a Song at Twilight" and "The Moon Behind the Hill"

          C              G             D    G    
Now those voices all are silent gone before us
[Chorus]
G              C                            G
So sing me the songs of our gold and silver days

G                              D
Days filled with innocence and light

      G                         C              G
Not a penny to our name we were happy just the same

       G        D      G
In our gold and silver days
[Verse 3]
G           D      G                      D     G
We gathered at the Daisy Field on Sundays after Mass

       C                G                 D
And we danced to Johnny Quigley and the Royals

            G        D        G                                D        G
Through the years we all were scattered but those friends were good and true

       C                    G             D G
Always there when they were needed always loyal 
[Chorus]
G              C                            G
So sing me the songs of our gold and silver days

G                              D
Days filled with innocence and light

      G                         C              G
Not a penny to our name we were happy just the same

In our gold and silver days

Days filled with innocence and light

Not a penny to our name we were happy just the same

       G#       D#     G#
In our gold and silver days
