GThings are okay with Dme these days
G7Got a good job, G9got a good office
CGot a new wife, Fgot a new life
And the Dsus4family's fine G/D D
GWe lost touch Dlong ago
G7You lost weight
I G9did not know
C You could ever Flook so good after
Dsus4So much ti-G/Di-i-me.D
You re Ebmember those days hanging Bbout
At the village Fgreen
EbEngineer boots, leather Bbjackets
And tight blue Fjeans
Drop a Ebdime in the box play the
BbSong about New Or Fleans
Eb Cold beer, Bb hot lights
C My sweet ro Gmantic teenage
G Brenda and Eddie were the popular steadies
And the Dking and the queen of the prom D C
GRiding around with the G/Bcar top down and the Cradio on F C F C
G Nobody looked any Dfiner D C
Or was Gmore of a hit at the CParkway Diner
GWe never knew we could Fwant more than that out of E7life
Surely Am7Brenda and G/BEddie would Calways know Dhow to sur Gvive.
Oooh Foh oh C/Eoh oh oDh oh oh oh Goh
Oooh Foh oh C/Eoh oh oDh oh oh oh oh
GBrenda and Eddie were still going steady in the Dsummer of '75 D C
GWhen they decided the G/Bmarriage would be at the Cend of July F C F C
GEveryone said they were Dcrazy D C
"GBrenda you know you're Cmuch too lazy
GEddie could never af Fford to live that kind of E7life."
ohhh But Am7there we were G/Bwavin' CBrenda and DEddie good Gbye.
Oh Foh oh C/Eoh oh Doh
They F/Cgot an apartment with deep pile carpet
And a Dcouple of paintings from GSears C G
A F/Cbig waterbed that they bought with the bread
They had Dsaved for a couple of Gyears C G
They F/Cstarted to fight when the money got tight
And Dthey just didn't count on the Emtears.
Whoa oh A7oh oh oh oh Am7/Doh yaaa rock n’
They F/Clived for a while in a very nice style
But it's Dalways the same in the CendG
They F/Cgot a divorce as a matter of course
And they Dparted the closest of Cfreh- Gends
Then the F/Cking and the queen went back to the green
But you can Dnever go back there a Em7gain.
Oh oh oh A7ohhhhh oh oh oh Am7/Dohhhhhh
GBrenda and Eddie had had it already
By the Dsummer of '75 D C
From the Ghigh to the low
To the G/Bend of the show
For the Crest of their lives F C F C
They Gcouldn't go back to the Dgreasers D C
The Gbest they could do was pick Cup the pieces
We Galways knew they would Fboth find a way to get E7by ooooh
Am7That's all I G/Bheard about CBrenda and DEddie
Am7Can't tell you G/Bmore than I Ctold you al Dready
