Now they make new movies in old black and white 
E7                        A7 
With happy endings, where nobody fights 
   D               F#7           B7 
So if you find yourself in that nostalgic rage 
       E7                A7 
Honey, jump right up and show your age...
[Estribillo]
  D            F#7         B7 
I wish I had a pencil thin moustache 
E7         A7      D 
The Boston Blackie kind 
  D         F#7      B7 
A two toned Ricky Ricardo jacket 
       E7                     A7 
And an autographed picture of Andy Devine  
D                D7 
I remember bein' buck-toothed and skinny 
G                      Bb 
Writin' fan letters to Sky's niece Penny 
     D            F#7         B7 
Oh I wish I had a pencil thin moustache 
     E7                 A7        D 
Then I could solve some mysteries too
[Puente]
          Em         B7          Em         B7 
Then it's Bandstand, Disneyland, growin' up fast 
Em            B7     Em 
Drinkin' on a fake I.D 
          F#m          C#7         F#m       C#7 
Yeah, and Ramar of the jungle was everyone's B'wana 
    E7                       A7 
But only jazz musicians were smokin' marijuana 
        D            F#7         B7 
Yeah, I wish I had a pencil thin moustache 
     E7                 A7        D 
Then I could solve some mysteries too

          Em        B7         Em         B7 
Then it's flat top, dirty bop, coppin' a feel 
 Em             B7          Em       B7 
Grubbin' on the livin' room floor (so sore) 
           F#m             C#7              F#m          C#7 
Yeah, they send you off to college, try to gain a little knowledge 
    E7                    A7 
But all you want to do is learn how to score
[Estrofa]
          D               F#7        B7 
Yeah, but now I'm gettin' old, don't wear underwear 
  E7                       A7 
I don't go to church and I don't cut my hair 
    D           F#7        B7 
But I can go to movies and see it all there 
         E7          A7      D 
Just the way that it used to be
[Estribillo]
             D            F#7         B7 
That's why I wish I had a pencil thin moustache 
E7         A7      D 
The Boston Blackie kind 
  D         F#7     B7 
A two toned Ricky Ricardo jacket 
       E7                     A7 
And an autographed picture of Andy Devine  
D                       D7 
Oh, I could be anyone I wanted to be 
      G                        Bb 
Maybe suave Errol Flynn or the Sheik of Araby 
     D          F#7         B7 
If I only had a pencil thin moustache 
     E7              A7       D 
Then I could do some cruisin' too
[Outro]
      D

    E7              A7       D       A7    D 
Oh, I could do some cruisin' too
