Summer of '69 by One Direction

I got my first real six-string: bought it at the five and dime,
Played it .til my fingers bled;
was the summer of sixty nine.

Me and some guys from school had a band and we (1)__________ (2)________ hard.
Jimmy quilt and jody got married;
I shoulda known we'd never get far.

Oh, when I look back now, that summer (3)____________ to last forever,
And if I had the choice, yeah, I'd always wanna be there.
Those were the best days of my life.

Ain't no usein complainin' when you got a (4)________ job to do.
Spent my evenin's down at the drive-in and that's when I met you.
Standin' on your mama's porch, you told me that you'd wait forever.
Oh, and when you held my hand, I knew that it was now or never.
Those were the (5)________ days of my life.

Back in the summer of sixty nine

Man, we were killin' time, we (6)________ young and restless, we needed to unwind.
I guess nothin' can last forever, forever, no!

And now the times are changin'; look at (7)____________________ that's (8)________ and gone.

Sometimes when I play that old six-string I think (9)__________ you;
Wonder what went wrong.
Standin' on your mama's porch, you told me it'd last forever.
Oh, and when you held my hand, I knew that it was now or never.
Those were the best days of my life.
