Intro: D A D A

D                                              A 

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 - 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

and now the times are changin' 

look at everything that's come and gone 

sometimes when i play my old six string 

i think about you wonder what went wrong

Bm                            A                        D                              G 

standing on your mamma's porch - you told me it'd last 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
