Summer Of '69
Ton : DEnglish
DI got my first real six strings
ABought it at the Five & Dime
DPlayed it 'til my fingers bled
AWas the summer of 69
DMe and some guys from school
AHad a band and we tried real hard
DJimmy quit and Jody got married
AI shouda known we'd never get far
Bm Oh when I looAk back now
DThat summer seemed to laGst forever
Bm And if I haAd the choice Dyeah
I'd always waGnna be there
Bm Those were the beAst days of my lifDe A
DAin't no use in complainin'
AWhen you got a job to do
DSpend my evenin'down at the drive-in
AAnd that's when I met you yeah
Bm Standin'on your maAma's porch
DYou told me that you'd waiGt forever
Bm Oh when you helAd my hand
DI knew that it was noGw or never
Bm Those were the beAst days of my liDfe
Oh yeAah... back in the summer of 6D9 A
FMan we were kBbilling time we were youCng
And restless wBbe needed to unwind
FI guess noBbthin'can last forevCer, forever no ! D
A D A
DAnd now the times are changin'
ALook at everything that's come and gone
DSometimes when I play that old six string
IA think 'bout you; wonder what went wrong
Bm Standin'on your maAma's porch
DYou told me it would lastG forever
Bm Oh when you helAd my hand
DI knew that it was noGw or never
Bm Those were the beAst days of my liDfe
Oh yAeah... back in the summer of D69
ABack in the summer of 69 D A
Me and my baby in 6D9...
