I remember '62
I was sixteen and so were you
Em A
And we lived next door,
D
On the avenue.
D
Jerry Lee was big and Elvis too;
Blue jeans and blue suede shoes,
Em A
And we never knew
D
What life held in store.
Em F#m G A D
We just wanted to rock 'n' roll forever more.
G F#m
We were the Rock 'n' Roll Kids
G D
And Rock 'n' Roll was all we did
Em F#m G A
And listening to those songs on the radio;
G F#m
I was yours and you were mine
G D
But that was once upon a time,
Em F#m G A D
Now we never seem to Rock 'n' Roll anymore.
D
Now Johnny's in love with the girl next door,
D
And Mary's down at the record store,
Em A
They don't want to be...
D
around us no more.
