Tuned a half step down - all chords relative to standard tuning.
In the main progression (E A B A), the last A is a quick single-downstroke -
listen carefully to get the timing right. Otherwise, this is a very simple song.

EThe VCR and the DVD - there wasn't nAone of that crap back in 1B970A  
EWe didn't know about a World Wide Web
Was a wAhole different game being played bBack when I wAas a kid
EWanna get down in a cool way?
APicture yourself on a beautifBul dayA  
EBig Bell Bottoms and groovy, long hair
Just a-wAalking in style with a portaBble CD player - No!
[Chorus]
You would listen to the music on the EAM Radio
AYeah, you could hBear the muAsic on the EAM RadioA  B  A  
[Verse]
EFlashback to '72
Another sAummer in the neighborhood, hanging oBut with nothing Ato do
ESometimes we'd go driving around in my sAister's Pinto
Cruising wBith the windows rAolled dEown
We'd listen to the radio station - we were tAoo damn poor 
to buy the B8-track tapeA  
EIt wasn't then a good time to want to be inside
My mAomma want to watch that TV aBll goddamn nC#might
I'd be in bed with the radio F#on
I would listen to it all night lAong just to hear my favorite sBong
You'd have to wait but you could hear it on the AEM Radio
