Summer of '75

by: Chris Knight (Written by Chris Knight, Sam Tate & Annie Tate)

CD: Chris Knight

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
