^A Rocky burned up the movie screen^D and I was turnin^E seventeen ^A Tie-dyed shirts and Levis jeans,^D lookin cool at the^E Dairy Queen Tryin to i^Dmpress a young woman in her^E Sunday dress

And that was 1^D976, didn't know who^A I was yet A pretty little^E blonde haired girl stole my heart and^A changed my world Two kids and a^D moonlit sky, a little love on a^A Friday night Built a fire that^E just wont quit,^D that was 1^A976

^A My high school days I packed away,^D set my sights on a^E bigger stage ^A Jimmy Carter moved to DC^D, a Georgia boy^E just like me, Life seemed^D easy nothin much that we^E needed

And that was 1^D976, didn't know who^A I was yet A pretty little^E blonde haired girl stole my heart and^A changed my world Two kids and a^D moonlit sky, a little love on a^A Friday night Built a fire that^E just wont quit,^D that was 1^A976

^A Eight track tapes were still in style^D and Elvis was^E still alive ^A Wonder Woman sure looked fine,^D Bionic Man was^E still Prime Time And that^D girl I liked, we kept on tryin till we^E got it right

And that was 1^D976, didn't know who^A I was yet A pretty little^E blonde haired girl stole my heart and^A changed my world Two kids and a^D moonlit sky, a little love on a^A Friday night Built a fire that^E just wont quit,^D that was 1^A976

^A Yeah, that was ^D1976, didn't know who^A we were yet Built a fire that^E just wont quit^D and that was 1^A976 We built a fire that^E just wont quit,^D that was 1^A976
