D 						 A
I got my first real six-string - bought it at the five-and-dime
Played 'til my fingers bled - was summer of '69
Me and some guys from school had a band and we tried real hard
Jimmy quit and Jody got married I shouldÕa known we'd never get far

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


Ain't no use in complainin' When you got a job to do
Spent my evenin's down at the drive in And that's when I met you


Bm		A			     D				G
Standin on your mamaÕs porch  You told me youÕd wait forever	
Bm		A			D			   G
And when you held my hand  I knew that it was now or never
Bm			  A			
Those were the best days of my life  (Synth Lead)


F		     Bb			C
Man we were killin' time We were young and restless
Bb/D				F	   Bb			 C
We needed to unwind  I guess nothin' can last forever, no


And now the times are changin'
Look at everything that's come and gone
Somethimes when I play that old six-string 
I think about ya wonder what went wrong

	Bm				A
	Standing on your mothers porch etc
