[A7] [Dm]
When I was seventeen
[Dm] [Eb]
It was a very good year
[Eb] [Dm] [F]
It was a very good year for small town girls
[F] [Eb-5] [Eb] [Ebmaj7] [Eb7]
And soft summer nights
[Eb7] [D]
We'd hide from the lights
[D] [C]
On the village green
[C] [D]
When I was seventeen

[A7] [Dm]
When I was twenty-one
[Dm] [Eb] [Ebmaj7]
It was a very good year
[Ebmaj7] [Dm] [Fmaj7]
It was a very good year for city girls
[Fmaj7] [Eb-5] [Eb] ( [Eb7-5] [Eb6] [Eb7-5] [Eb6] )
Who lived up the stair
[Eb6] [D] ( [Dmaj7] [D] )
With all that perfumed hair
[D] [C] ( [Cmaj7] [C] )
And it came undone
[C] [D] ( [D-5] [D] )
When I was twenty-one

[A7] [Dm]
When I was thirty-five

It was a very good year

It was a very good year for blue-blooded girls
[F] [Eb-5] [Eb]

We'd ride in limousines

Their chauffeurs would drive
[C] [D]
When I was thirty-five

Verse 4
[A7] [Dm] [Dm(maj7)] [Dm7]
But now the days are short
[Dm7] [Eb] [Ebmaj7] [Eb7]
I'm in the autumn of the year
[Eb7] [Dm] [F]
And now I think of my life as vintage wine
[F] [Eb]
From fine old kegs
[Eb] [D]
From the brim to the dregs
[D] [C] [Cmaj7]
And it poured sweet and clear
[Cmaj7] [D] ( [D] [Daug] [D-5] [D] )
It was a very good year
