Back when gas was thirty cents a gallon
G7 C
America was young and strong and brave
F C
Lord knows that I didn't have much money
G7
And my old car had seen some better days
F C
You were young and fresh as brand new roses
G7 C
I was so in love and strong and brave
F C
Back when gas was thirty cents a gallon
G7 C
And love was only sixty cents away
G7 F C
I don't think I'd know you if I'd s-ee you
F C G7
I practice my forgetting till it works
F C
Back when gas was thirty cents a gallon
G7 C
I didn't know the meaning of hurt
F C
Back when gas was thirty cents a gallon
G7 C
And sweet magnolias line those country roads
F C
We burned a tank of love most every weekend
G7
And on work days I helped 'em fix the roads
F C
My friends were many and our dreams were certain
G7 C
Whoever thought we'd go our separate ways
F C
Back when gas was thirty cents a gallon
G7 C
And love was only sixty cents away
G7 F C
I don't think I'd know you if I'd s-ee you
F C G7
I practice my forgetting till it works

Back when gas was thirty cents a gallon
