 CAPO 1
Intro:  G-Em-C-G


G                                   Em                                   
In the lamp light on Locust Street, with the party far behind
C                                      G                                      
No sound but the beat of her heart and mine
    G                                          Em 	 
The smell of her hair was my first breath, and her lips were my first
kiss
C                                G
And my first step was a headlong dive
 
 
           D                            G                C
I couldn't keep myself from falling, so she taught me to fly
          G           D           C
And I was born in the summer of '75
 
G                                      Em
In the morning light she wore my coat, and all I wanted to know
C                                         G
Was she trembling from the feeling or the cold
G                                      Em
As the sleepy small town came to life, I saw the answer in her eyes
C                                    G
And knew I'd always have her hand to hold
 
    D                                      G             C
Now somethings don't need saying, you just feel 'em deep inside
          G           D           C
The way I felt in the summer of '75
 
 
    D                              C            G
Now all that seems like yesterday, how the time slips away
    Em                 G
The blinding speed will leave you feeling cold
   D                             C               G
So when I feel the hands of time tugging at this life of mine
  Em           C                D
I reach for the warmest thing to hold
 
G-EM-C-G
 
G                                      Em
A light still shines on Locust Street, somewhere back in time
           C                               G
And I wake up to the beat of her heart and mine
    G                               Em
And I reach out and touch her hair, just to know that she's still there
C                                  G
And the dream I had is still by my side
 
 
        D                                G                   C
I might not make church on Sunday, but I thank the Lord each night
           G           D           C
That I was born in the summer of '75
            G           D           C
Yeah, I was born in the summer of '75
