75 Septembers

A  A7  B  E  E7  C#m  B  E  B


[Verse 1]

E                  E7       
In the year of the yellow cab, 
    B
shadow of the great world war
E             E7            A   
The third kid grandma had, came 
          B
into this world
E                    B           
On a rolling farm in Maryland 
   G#m           A
when Wilson was the president
F#m                A        B
As summer blew her goodbye through 
the trees

E                   E7            
A child of changing times, growing
 A              B
 up between the wars
E                    E7          
Fords rolled off the lines, And 
C#m                  B
bars all closed their doors
A            B                  
I imagine to you back then with 
G#m          A
snap brim hat and farmer's tan
A7                     B   
when horses drew their wagons 
               B B B
through the fields


[Chorus]

A                  B              
Now the fields are off four lanes,
 G#m             A
 and the moons' not just a name
F#m            A                 
are you more amazed at how things
          C#m             E
 change, or how they stay the same?
E7         B                     
And Do you sit here on this porch
             G#m          A
 and wonder, how the time flies by
F#m            G#m        A
or does it seem to barely creep 
along?
F#m          A               E
with seventy five Septembers come 
and gone


[Interlude]

[Verse 2]

E                  E7
Were the fields all gold and fawn
B                    B
Was the spring house dark and cool
E             E7
Did the rooster crow at dawn
 A             B
When they got you up for school
E                    B
And would you tell me once again
 G#m           A
The tales of granddad's hired men
F#m                A        B   
And how they drove the old dirt 
             B B B
road to town


[Chorus]

      A                  B        
Cause now the fields are off four 
       G#m             A
lanes, and the moons' not just a 
name
F#m            A                 
are you more amazed at how things
          C#m             E
 change, or how they stay the same?
E7         B                     
And Do you sit here on this porch
             G#m          A
 and wonder, how the time flies by
F#m            G#m        A
or does it seem to barely creep 
along?
F#m          A               E
with seventy five Septembers come 
and gone

E                  E7           B
In the year of the yellow cab
B                              A
Shadow of the great world war
