I got my first real six-string

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

Oh, when I look back now
D G
That summer seemed to last forever

Spent my evenin's down at the drive in

Standin' on your mama's porch

I guess nothin' can last forever, 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 you, wonder what went wrong
