Song: It Was A Very Good Year Tab
Intro: | Em | Am | Em - G dim | B7 |
Em E+ Em7 Em6 F Fm7/6 F
When I was seventeen, it was a very good year;
Em Em/F# G
It was a very good year for small town girls
F Fm7/6 F
And soft summer nights;
E D
We'd hide from the lights on the village green
E
When I was seventeen.
(Repeat Intro)
Em E+ Em7 Em6 F Fm7/6 F
When I was twenty-one, it was a very good year;
Em Em/F# G
It was a very good year for city girls
F Fm7/6 F
Who lived up the stairs
E D
With perfumed hair that came undone
E
When I was twenty-one.
(Repeat Intro)
Em E+ Em7 Em6 F Fm7/6 F
When I was thirty-five, it was a very good year;
Em Em/F# G
It was a very good year for blue-blooded girls
F Fm7/6 F
Of independent means;
E D
We're ride in limousines that their chauffeurs would drive
E
When I was thirty-five.
(Repeat Intro)
Em E+ Em7 Em6 F Fm7/6 F
And now the days are short, I'm in the autumn of my years,
Em Em/F# G
And now I think of my life as vintage wines
F Fm7/6 F
In fine old kegs;
E D
From the brim to the dregs, they pour sweet and clear...
E
It was a very good year.
