The Turtles 1965 (Erwin Drake 1961)
Capo III
Bm F#
Bm
When I was seventeen
C
It was a very good year
Bm D
It was a very good year for small town girls
C
And soft summer nights
B
We d hide from the lights
A
On the village green
B
When I was seventeen
Bm F#
Bm
When I was twenty-one
C
It was a very good year
Bm D
It was a very good year for city girls
C
Who lived up the stair
B
With perfumed hair
A
that came undone
B
When I was twenty-one
Bm F#
Bm
But now the days grow short
C
I'm in the autumn of the year
Bm D
And now I think of my life as vintage wine
C
from fine old kegs
B
from the brim to the dregs
A
It s oh sweet and clear
B A
It was a very good year
B A
It was a very good year
B A
It was a very good year . . .
