Intro
Verse 1
I got my first real six-string
Bought it at the five-and-dime
Played it 'til my fingers bled
It was the summer of '69
Verse 2
Me and some guys from school
Had a band and we tried real
hard
Jimmy quit, Jody got married
I shoulda known we'd never get
far
Chorus 1
Oh, when I look back now
That summer seemed to last
forever
And if I had the choice
Yeah, I'd always wanna be there
Those were the best days of my
life

Verse 3
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, yeah
Chorus 2
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
Bridge
Man, we were killin' time
We were young and restless
We needed to unwind
I guess nothin' can last
forever, forever no

Verse 4
And now the times are changin'
Look at everything that's come
and gone
Sometimes when I play that old
six-string
I think about you, wonder what
went wrong
Chorus 3
Standin' on your mama's porch
You told me that it'd 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
Outro
Oh yeah Back in the

Yeah
