Does anyone remember the great depression I read all about it in true confession I'm sorry I was late for the recording session But somebody put me on hold Has anybody seen my linoleum floors Petroleum jelly, and two world wars They got stuck in the revolving doors Chorus Old father time has got his toes tapping Standing in the window, grumbling and a rapping Everybody's waiting for something to happen Tell me if it happens to you The judgment day is getting nearer There it is in the rear view mirror If you duck down I could see a little clearer Chorus - x2 | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsA C F G Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
