[Intro 1]
[G][F][D][G]

[Verse 1]
He [G]sat down beside me
on [C]a bench in city square
[G]Pus[C]hed back his hat and
[G]scratched his head
Of [C]thinning silver [D]hair
Some [C]good old boys in a [D]beat -up Ford
[C]Drove by them back [G]again
He [C]rolled the smoke and lit [G]it up
And [C]slowly rubbed his [D]cheek
And he said, [G]I had a truck like that
Greased [C]like me on a [G]summer night
Wild as the wind, she was fast
And I was [F]young and so [D]alive
She [G]rode away with my heart
But [C]I got the ride of my l[G]ife
I just smiled at him,
didn't [F]answer [C]back
[D]Cause I had a truck [Dsus4]like that[C][G][F][D]
He [G]talked about the good times
In the [C]spring of fifty -three
[G]And a f[C]lood of long lost mem[G]ories
came [C]raining down on [D]me
And a [C]pretty girl with [D]long dark hair
walked [C]by [Am]across the street
[G]And a far[C] away look cro[G]ssed his face
and he [C]stared down at his [D]feet
And he said, [G]I had a girl like that,
like [C]jasmine on a [G]summer night
Wild as the wind, she was fast,
so [F]young and so [D]alive
She [G]ran away with my heart,
but [C]I had the time of my l[G]ife
I just smiled at him,
[F]didn't answer [C]back
[D]Cause I had a girl like [G]that
And [C]he stood up and [D]stretched his legs
And [C]strolled on down the [G]street
[C]I leaned back and c[D]losed my eyes
[C]Remembering how [D]sweet it was
When [G]I had a girl like that
Like [C]jasmine on a [G]summer night
Wild as the wind she was fast
So [F]young and so [D]alive
She [G]ran away with my heart
But [C]I had the time of my l[G]ife
I just smiled again as it [F]took me [C]back
[D]Cause I had a girl [G]like [C]that[G]
Some [C]long lost [D]memor[F#dim]ies you[D]
