Summer of '69

[Intro] D5

[Primera Parte]

D5
   I got my first real six string
A5
   Bought it at the five & dime
D5
   Played it til my fingers bled
A5
   Was the summer of sixty nine

D5
   Me and some guys from school
A5
   Had a band and we tried real hard
D5
   Jimmy quit and Jody got married
A5
   Should've known we'd never get far

[Estribillo 1]

Bm             A
   Oh, when I look back now
D                        G
  That summer seemed to last forever
Bm           A
   And if I had the choice
D                   G
  Yeah, I'd always wanna be there
Bm                 A               D   A
   Those were the best days of my life

[Segunda Parte]

D5
   Ain't no use complaining
A5
   When you've gotta job to do
D5
   Spent my evenings down at the drive in
A5
   And that's when I met you, yeah

[Estribillo 2]

Bm                   A
   Standing on your mamma's porch
D                         G
  You told me that you'd wait forever
Bm               A
   And when you held my hand
D                     G
  I knew that it was now or never
Bm                 A               D   A
   Those were the best days of my life

                        D         A
Back in the summer of 'sixty nine

[Puente]

F              Bb
  Man we were killin' time
         C
We were young and reckless
    Bb
We needed to unwind
F          Bb                 C
  I guess nothing can last forever

( D  A  D  A )

[Tercera Parte]

D5
   And now the times are changin'
A5
   Look at everything that's come and gone
D5
   Sometimes when I play that old six string
A5
   I think about you wonder what went wrong

[Refrão 3]

Bm                   A
   Standin' on your mama's porch
D                   G
  You told me it'd last forever
Bm               A
   And when you held my hand
D                     G
  I knew that it was now or never
Bm                A                D    A
   Those were the best days of my life
                        D         A
Back in the summer of 'sixty nine
