D] I still recall those happy times, it [G] seems like yes- [D] terday,
[D] We would sit close by his side and listen
to him [A] play:
[D] Lukey's Boat, I'se The B'y, and [G] that old Gal- [D] way Bay,
[D] Accordion man, I can [A] still
hear you [D] play.
[D] Every Sunday afternoon he'd [G] play those gospel [D] songs,
[D] We would sit close by his side and we would
sing [A] along;
From [D] Monday to Saturday he'd [G] play those jigs and [D] reels,
[D] Accordion man, how [A] good
you made us [D] feel.
[D] I wish I had the power now to [G] change the course of [D] time,
[D] I'd live again those happy days with
that friend of [A] mine;
[D] Just to hear him play one more of those [A] old-time melodies,
[D] Accordion man, [A] play
again for [D] me
