                 D           G           A        D  
We used to get crazy every Saturday night 
   G          D                    A 
We drive into town and get feeling right 
  D            G       A  Bm 
A child of the 60s in '74 
    G            A      D 
But I'm not that way anymore 
 
I burned the tires of my Chevrolet 
Trying to impress the girls that I date 
And I've been a gambler when I couldn't score 
But I'm not that way anymore 
 
D            D/F#   G 
I'm not that way anymore 
Em             A          D 
Time's closing yesterdays door 
D           D/F#             G 
I'm just as happy as I was before 
       G            A      D  
'Cause I'm not that way anymore
 
 
American Bandstand, The Sullivan Show 
I listened to the Opry on my radi-eye-O 
Well Dick Clark's still looking as young as before 
But I'm not that way anymore 
Well I swapped my loafers for cowboy boots 
And bought me some jeans, gave away all my suits 
My razor is rusted my barber is bored 
'Cause I'm not that way anymore 
 
Chorus 
 
Chorus 
 
And you're not that way 
We're not that way anymore
