play get buy be bleed be need be

I got my first real six-string Back in the summer of 69


Bought it at a five-and-dime
Played it till my fingers bled Man we were killing time
It was the summer of ‘69 We were young and restless
We needed to unwind
I guess nothing can last forever – forever, no
quit try get have

Put the lines in the correct order


Me and some guys from school
had a band and we tried real hard
Jimmy quit and Jody got married Sometimes when I play that old six-string __4__
I should’ve known we’d never get far And now the times are changing __1__
I think about you wonder what went wrong __3__
seem be have Look at everything that’s come and gone __2__

Oh when I look back now be hold know be tell


That summer seemed to last forever
And if I had the choice
Yeah – I’d always wanna be there Standing on your mama’s porch
Those were the best days of my life You told me it would last forever
Oh, the way you held my hand
I knew that it was now or never
meet spend Those were the best days of my life

Back in the summer of 69


Ain’t no use in complaining
When you got a job to do
Spent my evenings down at the drive-in
And that’s when I met you

be hold know be tell

Standing on your mama’s porch


You told me that you’ll wait forever
Oh, the way you held my hand
I knew that it was now or never
Those were the best days of my life
