[D]I got my first real six string
[A]Bought it at the five and dime
[D]Played it til my fingers bled
[A]Was the summer of '69
[D]Me and some guys from school
[A]Had a band and we tried real hard
[D]Jimmy quit and Jody got married
[A]I shoulda known we'd never get far
[h]But when I lo[A]ok back now
[D]That summer seemed to[G] last forever
[h]And if I[A] had the choice
[D]Ya - I'd always[G] wanna be there
[h]Those were the[A] best days of my[D] life
[D]Ain't no use in complainin'
[A]When you got a job to do
[D]Spent my evenin's down at the drive-in
[A]And that's when I met you - ya
[h]Standin' on your[A] mama's porch
[D]You told me that you'd[G] wait forever
[h]Oh and when you[A] held my hand
[D]I knew that it was[G] now or never
[h]Those were the[A] best days of my[D] life
[D] [A] Back in the summer[D] of '69[A]
[F]Man we were[B] killin' time
We were[C] young and restless
We[B] needed to unwind
[F]I guess[B] nothin' can last fore[C]ver - forever, no...
instr.: [D] [A] x2
[D]And now the times are changin'
[A]Look at everything that's come and gone
[D]Sometimes when I play that old six string
[A]I think about ya'n wonder what went wrong
[h]Standin' on your[A] mama's porch
[D]You told me it would[G] last forever
[h]Oh the way you[A] held my hand
[D]I knew that it wasG] now or never
[h]Those were the[A] best days of my[D] life
