Lost it on the chesterfield
Or maybe on a gamblin wheel
Lost it in a diamond mine
It's dark as hell and hard to find
You can climb to the top of the highest tree
You can look around, but you still won't see
What I'm lookin for
Where the good times gone?
Where the good times gone?
All the stupid fun
And all that shit we've done
Where the good times gone?
Well I still don't know
Out in the back in the old corn field
Underneath the tractor wheel
Thought I'd dig, til I'd found it first
Broke my back and died of thirst
You can bribe the devil, you can pray to God
You can sell off everything you got
And you still won't know
Where the good times gone?
Where the good times gone?
All the stupid fun
And all that shit we've done
Where the good times gone?
And you still don't know
Saw it on the silver screen
Preacher says, "don't know what it means"
Last page ad in a comic book
Bought me a map, showed me where to look
It ain't carved of stone or made of wood
And if you paid for it, then it's still no good
And you still won't know
What I'm looking for
Where the good times gone?
Where the good times gone?
All the stupid fun
And all that shit we've done
Where the good times gone?

version 2
Standard tuning.
Intro chords:
Play around with G and C power chords so that it sounds good. Slide up from the C power
chord at the end which leads into this neat riff:
Intro riff:
E--------------------------------------=|
B--------------------------------------=|
G-----0-------0-------0-------0--------=|
D-------0-------0-------0-------0------=|
A-------------------1-----1-3-----3----=|
E---3-----3-1-----1-----------------3--=|
This riff just keeps repeating itself
Then the chorus comes in at about 1:25 or so:
E-----------------|
B-----------------|
G-----------------|
D----8---10---5---|
A----8---10---5---|
E----6----8---3---|
Where the good times gone?
Where the good times gone?
Play that part twice.

B-------------|
G-------------|
D----8---10---|

All that stupid fun
All that shit we done
Play this part twice
E-----------------|
B-----------------|

D----8---10---5---|
A----8---10---5---|
E----6----8---3---|
Where the good times gone?
Well I still don't know.
Play this only once this time
This brings us to about 1:52 or so. The chords in the next section are a simple pattern
of G, F, Bb, and C. I like to play them all as power chords and slide from one to
another, but that's my preference.
The next section begins at about 2:04.
This is just the opening riff played over the G, F, Bb, C progression.
The next section begins at about 2:29
