  I wish somebody would have told me, babe

  Some day, these will be the good old days
        Bm       A         G
All the love you won't forget
                       F#m                   G
And all these reckless nights you won't regret

  Someday soon, your whole life's gonna change
Bm                A              G

[Verse 1]
      D
I was thinking about the band

I was thinking about the fans
        G
We were underground

Loaded merch in that 12-passenger van
     D
In a small club in Minnesota

And the snow outside of 1st Ave
       G
I just wanted my name in a star

Now look at where we at
              D                 G
Still growing up, still growing up
                    Bm
I'd be laying in my bed and dream about what I'd become
                     D                          G
Couldn't wait to get older, couldn't wait to be someone
             Bm                         G
Now that I'm here, wishing I was still young
               D
Those good old days


[Chorus]
D
  I wish somebody would have told me, babe
G
  Some day, these will be the good old days
        Bm       A         G
All the love you won't forget
                       F#m                   G
And all these reckless nights you won't regret
D                                          G
  'Cause someday soon, your whole life's gonna change
Bm                A              G
  You'll miss the magic of these good old days


[Verse 2]
              D
Wish I didn't think I had the answers
              D
Wish I didn't drink all of that glass first
G
Wish I made it to homecoming

Got up the courage to ask her
                D
Wish I would've gotten out of my shell

Wish I put the bottle back on that shelf
                    G
Wish I wouldn't have worry about what other people thought

And felt comfortable in myself
        D                  G
Rooftop open and the stars above
       Bm
Moment frozen, sneaking out, and falling in love
                 D                    G
Me, you and that futon, we'd just begun
       Bm               A                  G
On the grass, dreaming, figuring out who I was
                  D
Those good old days


[Chorus]
D
  I wish somebody would have told me, babe
G
  Some day, these will be the good old days
        Bm       A         G
All the love you won't forget
                       F#m                   G
And all these reckless nights you won't regret
D                                          G
  'Cause someday soon, your whole life's gonna change
Bm                A              G
  You'll miss the magic of these good old days


[Verse 3]
      D
Never thought we'd get old, maybe we're still young
       G
May we always look back and think it was better than it was
        D
Maybe these are the moments

Maybe I've been missing what it's about
                   G
Been scared of the future, thinking about the past

While missing out on now
              D                   G
We've come so far, I guess I'm proud
            Bm
And I ain't worried about the wrinkles around my smile
              D                    G
I've got some scars, I've been around
               Bm                                         G
I've felt some pain, I've seen some things, but I'm here now
                 D
Those good old days


[Bridge]
D
(woah-oh, woah-oh) You don't know
 G
(woah-oh, woah-oh) what you've got 
D
(woah-oh, woah-oh) Till it goes
G
(woah-oh, woah-oh) Till it's gone 
D
(woah-oh, woah-oh) You don't know
 G
(woah-oh, woah-oh) what you've got 
D
(woah-oh, woah-oh) Till it goes
G
(woah-oh, woah-oh) Till it's gone 


[Chorus]
D
  I wish somebody would have told me, babe
G
  Some day, these will be the good old days
        Bm       A         G
All the love you won't forget
                       F#m                   G
And all these reckless nights you won't regret
D                                 G
  Someday soon, your whole life's gonna change
Bm                A              G
  You'll miss the magic of these good old days
