Old Tyme Mem'ry-Erik Petersen(Mischief Brew)
Intro: D G Bm A G D A x2


                                  G
When father bought the farm, we sold the farm
                                                                            Bm
                        A
Mistook his blood for rustic charm
                                                                            G
               D
Sold his ghost as an antique to the
A
city

D                          G    Bm                      A
Kids today can’t hold a spade, rest in peace your weary trade
G         D                A
In this world there is no place, such a pity
D                              G
The barman shakes his head and fills my glass
           A             D
Says we’re living in the past
D   G          Bm                   A
Why preserve a dying craft and it’s misery?
G          D            A
I sigh and say “another modern man,
D      G             Bm     A
One of property, not land”
D         G        Bm
So I hold out this battered hand
          A
Will you listen?

(Chorus)

           G
Come sit down, we’re lamenting

           G
About yesterday’s sad ending

         G
About the water in my whiskey

              G   A
And the brass passed off as gold

           G
Another round, we’re descending

           G

            G
Of a day when wood was wooden

          G    A
Silver silver, gold was gold
                                                                             D
 G    Bm   G   D A
Sweet home was home
 D    G    Bm   G   D A
