Are The Good Times Really Over For Good 
Merle Haggard

C                                                                   F
I wish a buck was still silver and it was back when the country was strong
            G7                                    C
Back before Elvis and before the Vietnam war came along
                                                                       F
Before the Beatles and yesterday when a man could still work and still would
       G7
Is the best of the free life behind us now 
                                       C
And are the good times really over for good
                                                   
                                                   F
Are we rolling downhill like a snowball headed for hell
     G7                                            C
With no kind of chance for the flag or the liberty bell
                                                              F
I wish a Ford or a Chevy would still last ten years like they should
       G7
Is the best of the free life behind us now 
                                       C
And are the good times really over for good
       
                                                          F
I wish Coke was still cola and a joint was a bad place to be
       G7                                  C
It was back before Nixon lied to us all on TV
                                                              F
Before Microwave ovens when a girl could still cook and still would
       G7
Is the best of the free life behind us now
                                       C
And are the good times really over for good
 
                                                 F
Stop rolling downhill like a snowball headed for hell
     G7                                             C
Standup for the flag and let's all ring the liberty bell
                                                                     F
Let's make a Ford and a Chevy that'll still last ten years like they should
    G7
The best of the free life is still yet to come
                                         C
And the good times ain't really over for good
