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