Em C Am D B7 If ever you think about the happiest days of your life Em C Cast back your mind for a while Am D B7 And remember the time when you were a child. Em D C A A7 Don't think of things that make you sad G D C Just remember all the good times that you had. G B7 Do you remember only happy days, Em C Full of flaming Junes and summer holidays? G D Or do you remember those stormy Novembers C G D When we walked in the wind and the rain?
[Chorus]
G B7 Schooldays were such happy days, Em C Now they seem so far away, G D D B7 I remember and I'll always treasure. Em C Am D B7 School days were the happiest days of your life Em C Am But we never appreciate the good times we have D B7 Until it's too late.
[Verse 2]
Em D C A A7 I miss all the acquaintances we made G D C And I'd go back if I could only find a way, G B7 Schooldays were the happiest days Em C Though at the time they filled me with dismay. G D D B7 We only remember what we choose to remember. Em C A7 When I was a schoolboy I loathed D B7 regulations and rules, Em C A7 I hated my textbooks and my school uniform D B7 'Cos it made me conform, Em D C A7 And teachers were always disobeyed, G D C But I'd go back if I could only find a way.
[Chorus]
G B7 School days were the happiest days, Em C Now they seem so far away. G D D B7 I remember and I'll always treasure, Em C Am D B7 School days were the happiest days of your life Em C Am But we never appreciate the good times we have D B7 Until it's too late.
[Outro]
Em D C A A7 Now I wish I hadn't strayed G D C And I'd go back if I could only find a way. G Those schooldays.
