Put the van tape on
Bay at the moon
Rub each other down so good
Forget about the tune that's playing
Joan went east
And she went west
I stayed right here in the middle
That's where I liked it best
Oh The good times we had
Wouldn't worry about tomorrow
'Cause tonight was all we had
Oh The good times we knew
I'd tell you about them baby
But you were there, you were with me, too
And it felt so good
Funny how you look back on all the times we had
Remember all the good ones, forget about all the bad
Hanging out day after day in the hole in the wall
Things that seem to be so big then now somehow seems so small
Oh The good times we had
Wouldn't worry about tomorrow
'Cause tonight was all we had
Oh The good times we knew
I'd tell you about them baby
But you were there, you were with me, too
The heart is a hunter, the heart is a friend
Searching the shadows, searching 'til the end
I heard she married a guy from the valley
’ ’
Not for the glory but because he was a friend
When the fire burn out, and the waters run dry
The mountains have fallen, we'll remember those times
The seasons roll by, and the youth slips away
The glory has faded, then what will we say?
Oh The good times we had
Wouldn't worry about tomorrow
'Cause tonight was all we had
Oh The good times we knew
I'd tell you about them baby
But you were there, you were with me, too
(Repeat Chorus) ---Fade Out---
Chords: (easiest way to do this is with a cappo on the first fret covering strings E
B G D and A, so you can play the D# as an open chord)

Please note: I did not tab this, but I think it should be on UG because it is one of Tom
biggest songs.
