the best days of my life

	Bryan Adams - Summer Of 69 .mp3

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 
Me and some guys from school - had a band and we tried real hard 

Jimmy quit and Jody got married - I shoulda known we'd never get far 

Oh when I look back now - That summer seemed to last forever 
And if I had the choice - ya - I'd always wanna be there 
Those were the best days of my life 

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 

Standin' on your mama's proch - 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 '69 

Man we were killin' time - we were young and restless 
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 
Sometimes when I play that old six-string 
I think about ya wonder what went wrong 

Standin' on your mama's porch - you told me it would last forever 
Oh and when you held my hand - I knew that it was ow or never - ya 
Those were the best days of my life - oh ya - back in the summer of '69 
Ya - me and my baby in '69 

It was the summer of '69
