Verse 1
It's (D major) a hot summer night, (G major) 1954, (D major)
Delphi, Indiana,
(A major) at the Rexall Drugstore.
(D major) The gridiron king
is workin' late at (G major) the soda shop (D major)
His high school jacket layin' cross
the (A major) ice cream countertop (Asus4)
when (A major) she sit (D major) s down by the jukebox
in (G major) brand -new nylon hose, (D major)
a high -heeled toss indifferently
upon (A major) a painted toe (D major)
And it could have been
Meryl,
could (G major) have been
Jimmy D, (D major) it could have been you, (G major) (A major)
could have been me. (D major)
She tosses back her pretty head,
laughs (G major) through ruby lips. (D major)
A child of fifteen innocent years,
she (A major) has never been kissed.
And he look (D major) s at her and trembles,
his (G major) gridiron courage crushed (D major)
He is afraid to touch her,
but (A major) he is so in love (D major)
And it could have been
Marilyn, could (G major) have been
Jimmy D, (D major) it could have been you, (G major) (Asus4)
(A major) it could have been me. (D major)
He puts a nickel in the jukebox
She steps (G major) into his (D major) arms
They cannot look at each other
That (A major) don't last too (Asus4) long
His (A major) (D major) glass ring on her finger
resplen (G major) dent in the dark (D major)
She marvels at the weight of it
on her (A major) slender hand and heart (D major)
And it could have been
Marilyn,
could (G major) have been
Jimmy D, (D major) it could have been you, (G major) (Asus4)
(A major) it could have been me (D major)
Behind Coca -Cola and Neon,
they dance (G major) across the (D major) floor.
Delphi, Indiana,
at (A major) the Rexall drugstore. (D major)
You
Marilyn
