Summer of '69 piano leadsheet with chords

I got my first real sixstring;

bought it at the five and dime;

played it 'til my fingers bled;

was the summer of sixtynine.

Me and some guys from school in'

had a ev'ry and we tried real hard.

Jimmy evenin's and Jody got married;

I shouldabout and that's when never get far.

Stand Oh, when I look back now,

that summer seemed to last forever,

and if when I had the choice,

I yeah, I'd always wanna be there.

Those were the best days of my life.

Ain't no use in complainin';

when you ev'ry a that's job to do.

Spend my when I down play at the drivein,

I think about you, wonder I er met you.

Stand in' 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.

Back in the summer of sixtynine.

Man, we were killin' time, we were young and restless,

we needed to unwind.

I guess nothin' can last forever,

forever, no!

Back in the summer of sixtynine.

It was the summer of sixtynine.

It was the summer of sixtynine.
