[Intro]
A D E A E A
[Verse 1]
A D E
Rocky burned up the movie screen and I was turnin seventeen
A D E
Tie-dyed shirts and Levis jeans, lookin cool at the Dairy Queen
D E
Tryin to impress a young woman in her Sunday dress
[Chorus]
D A
And that was 1976, didn't know who I was yet
E A
A pretty little blonde haired girl stole my heart and changed my world
D A
Two kids and a moonlit sky, a little love on a Friday night
E D A
Built a fire that just wont quit, that was 1976
[Solo]
A D E A E A
[Verse 1]
A D E
My high school days I packed away, set my sights on a bigger stage
A D E
Jimmy Carter moved to DC, a Georgia boy just like me,
D E
Life seemed easy nothin much that we needed
[Chorus]
D A
And that was 1976, didn't know who I was yet
E A
A pretty little blonde haired girl stole my heart and changed my world
D A
Two kids and a moonlit sky, a little love on a Friday night
E D A
Built a fire that just wont quit, that was 1976
[Instrumental - Interlude]
A D A E A D A E D A
[Verse 2]
A D E
Eight track tapes were still in style and Elvis was still alive
A D E
Wonder Woman sure looked fine, Bionic Man was still Prime Time
D E
And that girl I liked, we kept on tryin till we got it right
[Chorus]
D A
And that was 1976, didn't know who I was yet
E A
A pretty little blonde haired girl stole my heart and changed my world
D A
Two kids and a moonlit sky, a little love on a Friday night
E D A
Built a fire that just wont quit, that was 1976
[Outro]
A D A
Yeah, that was 1976, didn't know who we were yet
E D A
Built a fire that just wont quit and that was 1976
E D A
We built a fire that just wont quit, that was 1976
