G  D  Am  C
Verse 1
G                       D
Don't you remember the fizz in a pepper
Am                     G            D
Peanuts in a bottle at ten two and four
   G                           D
A fried bologna sandwich with mayo and tomato
Am                            G               D
Sittin' round the table don't happen much anymore
       Em                       A7
We got too complicated It's all way over-rated
            C                         D 
I like the old and out-dated way of life
Chorus
G            D
Back when a hoe was a hoe
C
Coke was a coke
     G
And crack's what you were doing
                        D
When you were cracking jokes
             D
Back when a screw was a screw
    C
The wind was all that blew
     G
And when you said I'm down with that
                          D
Well it meant you had the flu
            Am
I miss back when
             C
I miss back when
             G     D
I miss back when
Verse 2
G                   D
I love my records, black, shiny vinyl
Am                                G                 D
Clicks and pops and white noise, man they sounded fine
G                            D
I had my favorite stations, the ones that played them all
Am                                    G                 D
Country, soul and rock-and-roll what happened to those times?
             Em                                     A7
I'm readin' street slang for dummies cause they put pop in my country
          C                     D               G
I want, more for my money, the way it was back then
Chorus

Back when a hoe was a hoe
C
Coke was a coke
     G
And crack's what you were doing

When you were cracking jokes
             D
Back when a screw was a screw
    C
The wind was all that blew
     G
And when you said I'm down with that
                          D
Well it meant you had the flu
            Am
I miss back when
             C
I miss back when
             G     D
I miss back when

Bridge
          Em
Give me a flat top for strumming
            A7
I want the whole world to be humming
C                         D               G
Just keep it coming, the way it was back then

I miss back when, I miss back when
