1960 Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]How[G] 'b[D]out[G] a tear for the
[F#m]year o[Em]f 1960
I watched the fins of the [D]Ca dillac [G]fall
I remember Dad explained
[F#m]about the Berlin Wall
[C][G][D]

[Verse 2]
[G]How 'bout a tear for the tor[F#m]ment
and [Em]the trouble
That was brewing in the [D]Asian way
[G]I wore a smile like the fac[F#m]es
that surround L.A.
[C][G][D]

[Verse 3]
[C]
In the city of the [Cm]lost and
[Bm]found
It's hard to get a [Em]break[C]
Hard to stop from getting [Cm]turned around
[Bm]And make the same mistakes[E]

[Verse 4]
[G]My reputation's on [F#m]the line[D]
[Em]The final day of '[D]59[G]
But like the sun,
just [D]watch me [F#m]shine
[D]Today
[C][G][D]

[Verse 5]
[G]How 'bout a cheer
for the [F#m]piano virtuoso
[Em]I practiced 61 m[D]inutes a day[G]
I could never reach the key[F#m]s
But it was all OK
[C][G][D]

[Verse 6]
[G]How 'bout a cheer for the
[F#m]humour in my [Em]brother
That could brighten up the [D]darkest nights
[G]It's just another sign of lov[F#m]e
Whenever we would [C]fight[G]
[D]

[Verse 7]
[C]
It's all the same twenty [Cm]years [Bm]ago
As it is right [Em]now[C]
Like a tour at the [Cm]closing [Bm]show
When I take my [E]bow

[Verse 8]
[G]My reputation's on [D]the lin[Em]e
At the start [D]of [G]'79
But like the sun, just [D]watch me shine
[Em]Today[Asus4][G]
I've played this part so
[D]many [Em]times
Since the end [D]of [G]'59
But like the sun, just [D]watch me shine

[Outro 1]
Today
[C][G][D][F][C]
