C                           G                C 
He'd Brylcream his hair and straightened his tie 
        F              C                  F      G 
When he walked out the door he'd kiss his mother goodbye 
C                        Em          
He's got the keys to his father's FJ  
     F          C          G           C 
He's taking out Jenny it's their first date 
C                                G              C 
He knocks on her door and he can hear his heart pound 
    F        C                   F      G 
Her father appears and looks him up and down 
C                                   Em          
He said 'Jen won't be long so you'd better come in' 
       F            C      G              C 
And he waits on the couch  flowers in his hand 

        F                                   C      
There's been so many changes down through the years 
        G                               C 
There's been so many good things left behind 
        F                         C      Em       Am  
You can call me sentimental but I really wouldn't mind 
       C                              G  C              
If you wrap me up and send me back to 1959
 
 
C                     G            C 
They'd go to a dance JO'K would be there 
    F             C          F           G 
And she'd look so pretty ponytail in her hair 
C                                 Em     
He plucked up the courage to take her hand in his 
     F           C             G                 C 
And there on her doorstep they stole their first kiss 


        F                                   C      
There's been so many changes down through the years

BREAK 
 
C                          G            C 
They fell in love and they remember the night 
        F         C               F         G 
When he nervously asked her would you be my bride 
C                                 Em    
When they made that promise 'till death do us part 
     F             C        G                 C 
You know that they meant it straight from the heart 

        F                                   C      
There's been so many changes down through the years
