Well we talked about old times

Like a couple of old guys
C G
And took a little walk to the old baseball diamond
G Am
And along came O'Brien with a guitar in his hand
C G
Met us on the field with impeccable timing
D G
He said "I got a new song to show ya
D G
"Though it prob'ly ain't gonna blow your mind"
C
And the thing about O'Brien was
D Am C Em
He could always make a string buzz like it was still 19 89
D
And I remembered that old car
C G
And that old girlfriend of mine
G
It was a cracked wooden thing

He said "Wanna talk about old strings?
C G
"It's been 10, 12 years since I last changed mine"
And it said Sears down the neck

Had a little blood stain on the 2nd fret
C G
But you know it still keeps impeccable time
D G
And he said "I got a brand new song to show ya
D G
"Though it prob'ly ain't gonna blow your mind"
C

Like it was still 19 89
