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)
