Intro 1
(D major) (G major) (D major) (A major) (D major)
Verse 1
66 was (D major) still a
narrow two -lane highway
Harry Truman was the man
who ran the (A major) show
The Bad Korean War was just beginning
I was just three years too young to (D major) go
Aunty Music hadn't gone
to New York City yet
And a serviceman was proud
of what he'd done (G major)
Oh, Hankin left the crown in every jukebox (D major)
And (A major) that's the way it was in
51 (D major)
There's so much (A major) about
the good old days
I'd (D major) love to tell
And there's folks around
I know still remem (A major) ber well
Slow dan (D major) cing close together
when the ballad played
Cause a thing called rock and roll
was yet to come (G major)
It was a big year for driving
restaurant car (D major) hop
And (A major) that's the way it was in
51 (D major) (G major) (D major) (A major)
(D major)
There's so much (A major) about
the good old days
I'd (D major) love to tell
And there's folks around
I know still remem (A major) ber well
Slow dan (D major) cing close together
when a ballad plays
All the things called rock and roll
are yet to come (G major)
It was a big year for driving,
restaurant, (D major) car hopping
That's (A major) the way it was in
51 (D major)
Hank (G major) in' left me crowded
every June (D major) bust
That's (A major) the way it was in 51 (D major) you
