Bryan Adams arrow / Summer of 69

: Summer of 69

1. D 
I got my first real six string

A 
Bought it at the five and dime

D 
Played it till my fingers bled

A 
Was the summer of '69


2. Me and some guys from school
Had a band and we tried real hard
Jimmy quit and Jody got married
shoulda known we'd never get far

R: Hmi 
But when I 
A 
look back now

D 
That summer seemed to 
G 
last forever

Hmi 
And if I 
A 
had the choice

D 
Ya - I'd always 
G 
wanna be there

Hmi 
Those were the 
A 
best days of my 
D 
life


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 - ya

R: 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
*: 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 fo
C 
rever - forever, no…


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 ya'n wonder what went wrong

5. Standin' on your mama's porch…
