Intro: |
I got my first real six-string |
Bought it at the five-and-dime |
Played it till my fingers bled |
Was the summer of '69 |
Me and some guys from school |
Had a band and we tried real hard |
Jimmy quit, Jody got married |
Shoulda known, we'd never get far |
Oh when I look back now |
That summer seemed to last forever |
And if I had the choice |
Yeah, I'd always want to be there |
Those were the best days of my life |
Bridge: |
Ain't no use in complainin' |
When you got a job to do |
Spent my evenings down |
at the drive-in |
And that's when I met you yeah! |
Standin' on your mama's porch |
You told me that |
you'd wait forever |
Oh and when you held my hand |
I knew that it was now or never |
Those were the best days of my life |
Oh yeah |
back in the summer of '69 ohhh |
Man we were killin' time |
We were young and restless |
We needed to unwind |
I guess nothin' can last forever, |
Forever, no |
Bridge: x2 |
And now the times are changin' |
Look at everything that's |
come and gone |
Sometimes when I play |
that old six-string |
Think about you wonder |
what went wrong |
Bridge: |
x2 |
Standin' on your mama's porch |
You told me that it last forever |
Oh and when you held my hand |
I knew that it was now or never |
Those were the best days of my life |
Oh yeah back in the summer of '69 |
Un-huh it was the summer of '69 |
oh yeah |
Me and my baby in '69, ohhhhhh |
It was the summer, the summer, |
The summer of '69 |
