[Verse 1]
G D
Tommy got off at the Texaco
C G
Came bustin' in to Norma's Cafe
D
Said come on man we gotta go
C G
You know how those part girls hate to wait
D
Filled up his daddy's trunk with ice and beer
C G
Yeah he was always stealin' the old man's car
D
Radio never came in too clear
C G
So I'd bang out one on my piece of junk guitar
[Chorus]
Em F
Yeah we ruled from the blacktop
C G
To the levee where the party never stopped
D
Yeah there was power in the night
Em F
The spirit was alive when we would sing
G D C F
Sha na na na na na na na
G
When We were kings
[Verse 2]
G D
Sittin' around the fire one night Tommy called my name
C G
I turned around he said hey what do ya think
D
Had his arm around the prettiest girl I'd ever seen
C G
He kissed her hard and took another drink
D
I say you must be an angel puttin' up with this guy
C G
She laughed and said play me some Rolling Stones
D
I couldn't let that chance go by
C G
Yeah I sang her "You Can't Always Get What you Want"
Repeat Chorus
[Verse 3]
G D
That was the fall of '69
C G
I guess Uncle Sam was hedging his bet
D
Tommy's number came up he said "Hey I'll be fine"
C G
"I'll teach 'em a lesson they'll never forget"
D
Angel and I went to wave goodbye
C G
I guess we'd always thought we'd see him again
D
You know I took her out after that a couple of times
C G
We always just wound up talkn' 'bout him
