[Verse 1]

         
When I was sev

enteen
       
It was a very 

good year
          
It was a very 

              
good year for 


small town gir

ls
       
And soft summe

            
r nights
  
We'd hide from

 the lights
      
On the village

 green
          
When I was sev

enteen

[Verse 2]

         
When I was twe

nty-one
          
It was a very 

             
good year
      
It was a very 

              
good year for 


city girls
     
Who   lived up

        (      )
 the stair
           
With all that 

          (       )
perfumed hair
            
And it came un

 (       )
done
            
When I was twe

       (       )

[Verse 3]

         
When I was thi

rty-five
       
It was a very 

good year
          
It was a very 

              
good year for 


blue-blooded g

irls
    
Of independent

 means
   
We'd ride in l

imousines
     
Their chauffeu

rs would drive
          
When I was thi

[Verse 4]

          
But now the da

             
ys are short
         
I'm in the aut

              
umn of the yea

   
r
         
And now I thin

             
k of my life a

s vintage wine
    
From fine old 

kegs
       
From the brim 

to the dregs
            
And it poured 

              
sweet and clea

  
r
        
It was a very 

          (         )
good year
