Bryan Adams - Summer of '69

[D]I got my first real six-string,
[A]Bought it at the five-and-dime,
[D]Played it till my fingers bled,
[A]It was the summer of '69.

[Hm]Oh when I [A]look back now,
[D]That summer seemed to [G]last forever,
[Hm]And if I [A]had the choice,
[D]Yeah, I'd always [G]wanna be there,
[Hm]Those were the [A]best days of my [D]life.

[D]Ain't no use in complaining
[A]When you got a job to do,
[D]Spent my evenings down at the drive-in
[A]And that's when I met you, yeah.

[Hm]Standin' on your [A]Mama's porch
[D]You told me that you'd [G]wait forever,
[Hm]Oh, and when you [A]held my hand
[D]I knew that it was [G]now or never,
[Hm]Those were the [A]best days of my [D]life.

                 Oh yeah,               Back in the summer of '69.

[F]Man we were [B]killing time,
We were [C]young and restless,
We [B]needed to unwind,
[F]I guess [B]nothing can last for[C]ever, forever, no.

[D]And now the times are changing,
[A]Look at everything that's come and gone,
[D]Sometimes when I play that old six-string
[A]I think about you, wonder what went wrong.

[Hm]Standin' on your [A]Mama's porch
[D]You told me that it'd [G]last forever,
[Hm]Oh, the way you [A]held my hand
[D]I knew that it was [G]now or never,
[Hm]Those were the [A]best days of my [D]life.
