Intro 1
(G major) (C major) (G major) (E minor) (A minor) (D major)
Verse 1
(G major) Creek was
running by (C major) the (G major) road
And the Buckeye sun was a-shinin'
I (D major) I rode (G major) my bike down
(C major) Alum Creek (G major) Drive
When (E minor) I was a boy in Ohio (A minor)
The (D major) English (G major) teacher he (C major)
didn't (G major) care
He challenged us to checkers (F major)
And (B flat major) once in a while we'd
swap a joke (D major) (D minor)
When (D major) I was a boy in Ohio (E flat major) (D major)
(G major) Once I was caught (D major) playing
(C major) hooky from school (G major)
They found me home in the evening (D major)
I con (G major) fessed I had been
to (D major) the (C major) movie show (G major)
When (E minor) I was a boy in Ohio (A minor) (D major)
(G major) We would wait for the summer (C major)
to come (G major)
For swimmin' and pickin' (F major) berries
But (B flat major) now a freeway covers the (D minor) field
Where (D major) I used to be so (E flat major) happy (D major)
(G major) (C major) (G major) (F major) (B flat major) (D minor) (D major) (E flat major) (D major)
I (G major) remember the (C major) Burger Boy (G major)
Where the girls would shine
like the (D major) engines
An (G major) d the radio (C major) was always (G major) loud
When (E minor) I was a boy in Ohio (A minor) (D major)
Spanish (G major) teacher she (C major) tried to (G major) help
She was much too pretty (F major)
So (B flat major) I just stared at the
back of her (D major) leg (D minor) s
When (D major) I was a boy in Ohio (E flat major) (D major)
It was (G major) 3.2 beer at
(D major) the honky (C major) tonk (G major) bar
Where they said the girls were (D major) easy
But somehow (G major) I never (C major) found me (G major) one
When (E minor) I was a boy in Ohio (A minor) (D major)
Soon (G major) I was (D major) grown (G major) and I (C major) had to (G major) leave
And I've been all over the country (F major)
But I (B flat major) don't believe I've had more (D minor) fun
Than when (D major) I was a boy in Ohio
