i got my first real six string - brought it at the five & dime

D*                              A*
played it til my fingers bled - was the summer of '69

D*                               A*
me and some guys from school had a band and we tried real hard

D*                                   A*
jimmy quit and jody got married - shoulda known we'd never get far

Bm        A               D                            G
oh when i look back now - that summer seemed to last for ever

Bm      A               D               G
and if i had the choice - ya i'd always wanna be there

Bm               A                 D*     A*
those were the best days of my life

D*                        A*
ain't no use complaining - when ya gotta job to do

D*                                          A*
spent my evenings down at the drive in - and that's when i met you - ya

Bm                A                D                           G
standing on your mamma's porch - you told me that you'd wait forever

Bm         A                 D                      G
and when i held your hand - i knew that it was now or never

Bm               A                 D*  A*                           D*   A*
those were the best days of my life - back in the summer of '69

F              Bb
man we were killin' time
          C                         Bb
we were young and reckless - we needed to unwind

F      Bb                    C
i guess nothing can last forever...

D* A* D* A*

D*
and now the times are changin'

A*
look at everything that's come and gone

D*
sometimes when i play my old six string

A*
i think about you wonder what went wrong

Bm                A                D                           G
standing on your mamma's porch - you told me that you'd wait forever

Bm         A                 D                      G
and when i held your hand - i knew that it was now or never

Bm               A                 D*  A*                           D*   A*
