Intro: E

Verse 1: 
           E
When I was young
                    Abm
I'd listened to the radio
        Dbm              A
Waitin' for my favorite songs
          Dbm           Abm
When they played I'd sing along
           Gbm       B
It made me smile
 

                E
Those were such happy times
           Abm
And not so long ago
      Dbm                    A
How I wondered where they'd gone
Ab7    B      Dbm
But they're back again
            A
Just like a long lost friend
        Gbm                B
All the songs I loved so well
 
Chorus:
B7       E
  Every Sha-la-la-la
      Dbm
Every Wo-wo-wo
       E        Dbm
Still shines
      E
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling
             Dbm
That they're starting to sing
    Gbm      B
So fine
 
Post-chorus:
          Dbm
When they get to the part
           G#+
Where he's breakin' her heart
       Dbm7            A
It can really make me cry
          Abm              B
Just like before
                E
It's yesterday once more
 
Verse 2:
        E
Lookin' back on how it was
    Abm
In years gone by
        Dbm                A
And the good times that I had
        Dbm              Abm
Makes today seem rather sad
            Gbm          B
So much has changed
 

       E
It was songs of love that
                Abm
I would sing to then
      Dbm              A
And I'd memorize each word
Ab7     B   Dbm
Those old melodies
              A
Still sound so good to me
        Gbm              B
As they melt the years away
 
Chorus:
   B7       E
Every Sha-la-la-la
      Dbm
Every Wo-wo-wo
       E        Dbm
Still shines
      E
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling
             Dbm
That they're starting to sing
    Gbm      B
So fine
 
 
       Dbm
All my best memories
          G#+
Come back clearly to me
         Dbm7          A
Some can even make me cry
          Abm          B
Just like before
               E
It's yesterday once more
 
 
   B7       E
Every Sha-la-la-la
      Dbm
Every Wo-wo-wo
       E        Dbm
Still shines
      E
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling
             Dbm
That they're starting to sing
    Gbm      B
So fine
 
 
   B7       E
Every Sha-la-la-la
      Dbm
Every Wo-wo-wo
       E        Dbm
Still shines
      E
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling
             Dbm
That they're starting to sing
    Gbm      B
So fine
