Karaoké Summer of '69 (MTV Unplugged) Bryan Adams

Good evening everybody

Here we go

Two, three, four

I got my first real six-string bought it at the five and dime

Played it till my fingers bled it was the summer of a sixty-nine

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

But when I look back now that summer seemed to last forever

And if I had the choice yeah 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 yeah

Standin' on your mama's porch you told me that you'd wait forever

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 sixty-nine

Yeah, man we were killin' time we were young and restless we needed to unwind

I guess nothin' can last forever forever, yeah

And now the times are changin'

Look at everything that's come and gone

Sometimes when I play my old six-string

I think about ya wonder what went wrong

Standin' on your mama's porch you told me it would last forever

And when you held my hand

I knew that it was now or never

Those were the best days of my life, oh

Back in the summer of sixty-nine, hey

It was the summer of sixty-nine, oh yeah

Just me and my baby in sixty-nine, oh, oh, yeah

It was the summer the summer the summer of sixty-nine, hey, woah

We were the summer of love, oh

Thank you
