 D                                A        
   I got my first real six string - bought 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

   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               Dsus2 D Dsus4 D Dsus2 D Asus2 A  Asus4 A  Asus2  A       
   Those were the best days of my life - back in the summer of '69       

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

   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
