40th High School Reunion Blues
Blues in E 
Lyrics by Glenn Boledovich

 

Verse 1
As I look around the room; 
I see some dear old friends of mine
Looking round this room tonight; 
I see some dear old friends of mine
Has it really been that long; 
Since we shared those years at Shrine?

 

Verse 2
We walked the halls of high school; 
We traded jokes; we traded looks
Walked the hallowed halls of ole Shrine High; 
Sometimes we even hit the books
Learned a lot of stuff back then; 
Some in the lessons that we took

 

Chorus
We were a pretty cool bunch of kids; 
Just lookin’ for clues
Sometimes things got awkward; 
Didn’t quite know what to do
Sometimes it was just good fun; 
at the game or at the hop
And as for some of those after parties; 
Some I remember—others not

 

Repeat Verse 1

 

Verse 3
Its been 40 years; 
Oh man, so much has changed
Its been 40 long years my friends; 
Yet some songs remain the same
Memories come streaming back’; 
As I link faces with the names

 

Repeat Chorus
