Verse 1
[C]
When I was young
[Em]
I'd listened to the radio
[Am] [F]
Waitin' for my favorite songs
[Am] [Em]
When they played I'd sing along
[Dm] [G]
It made me smile
[C]
Those were such happy times
[Em]
And not so long ago
[Am] [F]
How I wondered where they'd gone
[E7] [G] [Am]
But they're back again
[F]
Just like a long lost friend
[Dm] [G]
All the songs I loved so well
Chorus
[G7] [C]
(*) Every Sha-la-la-la
[Am]
Every Wo-wo-wo
[C] [Am]
Still shines
[C]
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling
[Am]
That they're starting to sing
[Dm] [G]
So fine
[Post Chorus]
[Am]
When they get to the part
[E+]
Where he's breakin' her heart
[Am7] [F]
It can really make me cry
[Em] [G]
Just like before
[C]
It's yesterday once more
Verse 2
[C]
Lookin' back on how it was
[Em]
In years gone by
[Am] [F]
And the good times that I had
[Am] [Em]
Makes today seem rather sad
[Dm] [G]
So much has changed
[C]
It was songs of love that
[Em]
I would sing to then
[Am] [F]
And I'd memorize each word
[E7] [G] [Am]
Those old melodies
[F]
Still sound so good to me
[Dm] [G]
As they melt the years away
Chorus
[G7] [C]
Every Sha-la-la-la
[Am]
Every Wo-wo-wo
[C] [Am]
Still shines
[C]
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling
[Am]
That they're starting to sing
[Dm] [G]
So fine
[Am]
All my best memories
[E+]
Come back clearly to me
[Am7] [F]
Some can even make me cry
[Em] [G]
Just like before
[C]
It's yesterday once more
[G7] [C]
Every Sha-la-la-la
[Am]
Every Wo-wo-wo
[C] [Am]
Still shines
[C]
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling
[Am]
That they're starting to sing
[Dm] [G]
So fine
[G7] [C]
Every Sha-la-la-la
[Am]
Every Wo-wo-wo
[C] [Am]
Still shines
[C]
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling
[Am]
That they're starting to sing
[Dm] [G]
So fine
