I (D)remember
'sixty-two
I was sixteen
and so were you
And we (G)lived
next (A)door, on the (D)avenue.
Jerry Lee was
big and Elvis too;
Blue jeans and
blue suede shoes,
And we (G)never
(A)knew what life (D)held in store.
We just (G)wanted
to Rock 'n' (A)Roll for(D)ever more.
Chorus
(G)We were the (F#m)Rock 'n' Roll (D)Kids
And Rock 'n' (G)Roll was (D)all we did
And (G)listening to those (A)songs on the radi(D)o;
I was (G)yours and (F#m)you were (D)mine
But that was (G)once u(D)pon a time,
Now we (G)never seem to Rock 'n' (A)Roll any(D)more.
Now (D)Johnny's
in love with the girl next door,
And Mary's down
at the record store,
They don't (G)want
to be...(A)...around (D)us no more.
"Golden Oldies"
but we hardly speak
Too busy running
to a different beat
Hard to (G)under(A)stand,
we were (D)once like them.
How I (G)wish
we could find those Rock 'n' Roll (A)days a(D)gain.
Chorus
I was (G)yours
and (F#m)you were (D)mine
That was (G)once
u(D)pon a time,
Now we (G)never
seem to Rock and (A)Roll...
We just (G)never seem to Rock and (A)Roll any(D)more.
(For easier version replace F#m by A)
