Tuning: Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb
Tuned a half step down - all chords relative to standard tuning.
In the main progression (E A B A), the last A is a quick single-downstroke -
listen carefully to get the timing right. Otherwise, this is a very simple song.

[Verse]
EThe VCR and the DVD - there wasn't nAone of that crap back in 1B970 A
EWe didn't know about a World Wide Web
Was a wAhole different game being played bBack when I wAas a kid
EWanna get down in a cool way?
APicture yourself on a beautifBul day A
EBig Bell Bottoms and groovy, long hair
Just a-wAalking in style with a portaBble CD player - No!
[Chorus]
You would listen to the music on the EAM Radio
AYeah, you could hBear the muAsic on theE AM RadioA B A
[Verse]
EFlashback to '72
Another sAummer in the neighborhood, hanging oBut with nothing Ato do
ESometimes we'd go driving around in my sAister's Pinto
Cruising wBith the windows rAolled dEown
We'd listen to the radio station - we were tAoo damn poor
to buy the B8-track tapeA
EIt wasn't then a good time to want to be inside
My mAomma want to watch that TV aBll goddamn nC#might
I'd be in bed with the radio F#mon
I would listen to it all night lAong just to hear my favorite sBong
You'd have to wait but you could hear it on the AEM Radio
[Chorus]
AYeah, you could hBear the music oAn the EAM Radio
I can sAtill hear momma say, "BBoy, turn that rAadio dEown!"
Aww, mom, not that sAhow again!
I don't wBanna watch tAhat sEhow
Can't we watch Good Times or CAhico And The Man or something cool? B A
Turn it oBff!
[Verse]
EThings changed back in '75
We were aAll growing up on the in aBnd the outsAide

We got bAusted getting high in the back of Bmy friend's vAan
EI remember 1977
I started gAoing to concerts and I saw the BLed ZeppeAlin
EI got a guitar on Christmas day
I dreamed that JAimmy Page would come to Santa MBonica and teach me to C#mplay
Teach me to F#mplay
Teach me to pAlay
C#mThere isn't any place that I need to F#mgo
There isn't anything that I need to kAnow I did not learn from the radBio
