[Intro]
 
C F Am F x2
 
 
[Verse]
 
C
Quarter in a payphone
 
Drying laundry on the line
         Bb
Watching sun tea in the window
       F
Pocket watch for telling time
 
C
Seems like only yesterday
 
I'd get a blank cassette
   Bb
Record the Country Countdown
       F                     C F
'Cos I couldn't buy it yet
 
            C
If we drove all the way to Dallas
 
Just to buy an Easter dress
            Bb
We'd take along a Rand McNally
         F
Stand in line to pay for gas
 
    C
God knows that shifting gears
 
Ain't what it used to be
             Bb
I learned to drive that '55
            F
Just like a Queen three on a tree
 
 
[Chorus]
 
C                       F
Hey whatever happened to
               Am
Waiting your turn
           F
Doing it all by hand
          C                         F
'Cos when everything is handed to you
            Am                    F
It's only worth as much as the time you put in
   Bb                                 F
It all just seems so good the way we had it
Bb                        F         C      F Am F
Back before everything became, Automatic
 
 
[Verse]
 
   C
If you had something to say
 
You'd write in on a piece of paper
          Bb
And you'd put a stamp on it
           F
And they'd get it three days later
 
C
Boys would call the girls
 
And girls would turn them down
        Bb
Staying married was the only way
   F
To work your problems out
 
 
[Chorus]
 
C                       F
Hey whatever happened to
               Am
Waiting your turn
           F
Doing it all by hand
          C                         F
'Cos when everything is handed to you
            Am                    F
It's only worth as much as the time you put in
   Bb                                 F
It all just seems so good the way we had it
Bb                        F         C       F   Am F
Back before everything became, Automatic, yeah
    C     F Am F
Automatic
 
 
[Bridge]
 
       C
Lets's roll the windows down
 
Windows with the cranks
     Bb
Come on let's take a picture
    F
The kind you gotta shake
 
 
[Chorus]
 
C                       F
Hey whatever happened to
