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