INTRO: G
[G]I turned on the news, then I wo[Cadd9]ndered what for[D]
[G]Another kid brought a gun to school, a po[Cadd9]litician lied some m[D]ore
It's e[C]nough to make a grown m[D]an try to [G]make it m[G/F#]ake some s[Em]ense
[C]And wonder where we lost our in[D]nocence
CHORUS:
Singin' co[G]me back Gene and Roy, b[C]ack to the Sat[D]urday matin[G]ee [C][D]
Just like [G]when I was a boy, d[C]eliver me f[D]rom the bad old da[G]ys [C][D]
The bad old d[G]ays
[C] [D]
The magazine said OJ lost his head
Oklahoma City rumbled, and the children bled
I wish that I could change things but I don't know where to start
It leaves a longing for my childhood down in my heart
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
I'm [C]back in the s[D]addle, happy t[G-G/F#]rails to [Em]you
No [C]I wouldn't trade the old for the [D]new
Some guy married his uncle on the Springer Show
And a website full of kiddie porn is more than I wanna know
My heart and soul both ache from a sickness I can't cure
I need a shot of my heroes clean and pure
CHORUS
[C] [D]
Singin' c[G]ome back Gene and Roy (happy tr[C]ails to y[D]ou)
C[G]ome back Gene and Roy (I'm [C]back in the sa[D]ddle)
Singin' c[G]ome back Gene and Roy (Happy tr[C]ails to y[D]ou)
C[G]ome back Gene and Roy (I'm [C]back in the s[D]addle again)
