Introdução: Em F Em G F B7 

       Em            
When I was seventeen  
F 
It was a very good year 
       Em    
It was a very good year  
    G            F 
For small town girls and soft summer nights 
   E 
We'd hide from the lights 
      D               E 
On the village green when I was seventeen 
        Em            
When I was twentyone  
F 
It was a very good year 
      Em 
It was a very good year 
    G           F 
For city girls who lived up the stair 
     E 
With perfumed hair  
    D                 E 
That came undone, when I was twenty-one 
       Em               
When I was thirty-five  
F 
It was a very good year 
      Em 
It was a very good year 
    G            F 
For blue blooded girls of independant means 
   E 
We'd ride in limousines 
       D                     
Their chauffeurs would drive  
 E 
When I was thirty-five 
        Em                   
But now the days are short 
E 
I'm in the autumn of the year 
      Em 
And now I think of my life 
    G           F 
As vintage wine from the old kegs  
      E 
From the brim to the dregs 
       D                      
It poured sweet and clear 
E 
It was a very good year
