It Was A Very Good Year chords
The Turtles 1965 (Erwin Drake 1961)

Capo III

[Bm] [F#]
When I was [Bm]seventeen
It was a [C]very good year
It was a [Bm]very good year for [D]small town girls
And [C]soft summer nights
We d [B]hide from the lights
On the [A]village green
When I was [B]seventeen

[Bm] [F#]
When I was [Bm]twenty-one
It was a [C]very good year
It was a [Bm]very good year for [D]city girls
Who [C]lived up the stair
With [B]perfumed hair
that [A]came undone
When I was [B]twenty-one

[Bm] [F#]
But now the [Bm]days grow short
I'm in the [C]autumn of the year
And [Bm]now I think of my life as [D]vintage wine
from [C]fine old kegs
from the [B]brim to the dregs
It s [A]oh sweet and clear
It was a [B]very good year[A]
It was a [B]very good year[A]
It was a [B]very good year [A] . . .
