In s[G]ixty-eight Julie was Jo[F#]hnnie's date
[F#]Two kids growin' together
[G]Livin' each day as if time was sli[F#]ppin' away
Oh, the[G]y were just sixteen

2.Suzie and Davey got to make the big time
Maybe they can put it all together
In a show that lasts forever
Oh they would walk the strip at nights
And dream they saw their name in lights
On Desolation boulevard
They'll light the faded light
Suzie and Davey you can make it
Rf.But life goes on, you know it ain't easy
You've just gotta be strong
If you're one of the sixteens
And life goes on, you know, you know it ain't easy
You know you'll never go wrong
'Cause you're all part of the sixteens
Br.B D A E B D A F#
[F#]So where were you in sixty-eight
When[G] Bobby and Billy thought
That[F#] sixty eight was out of date
They took the flowers from their hair
[G]And tried to make us all aware
[F#]Too bad, too late
So the[G]y lived from day to day
And tried to [F#]do it all their way
But six[G]ty-eight was sixty-eight
[F#]No matter what they say
[G]Bobby and Billy maybe you'll m[A]ake it one day...
Rf.But life goes on, you know it ain't easy
You've just gotta be strong
If you're one of the sixteens
And life goes on, you know, you know it ain't easy
You know you'll never go wrong
'Cause you're all
And life goes on, you know, you know it ain't easy
You know you'll never go wrong
'Cause you're all part of the sixteens
