The 70'S were raging on
 
I was a teenage kid moving on

to high school

TV, music, and drive-in screens
                              
Set the stage for a life and 
             C         C C D
dreams in a small town        
 
 
[Chorus]

With dad's arm out the window
              G               G Em
Of that blue Mercury Marquis      
 D                  C
With mom making us kids settle down
 G                          G
Yelling from the front seat

Bell bottoms and platform shoes
                      
Walter Cronkite on in 
            C
our living rooms
 C                  G G   C  G
And the war in Vietnam       
 
G
CCR and the Rolling Stones
                                   C
Fading in and out on that car stereo
 
As we went flying down the road
 
 

[Chorus]

With dad's arm out the window
              G               G Em
Of that blue Mercury Marquis      
 D                  C
With mom making us kids settle down
 G                          G
Yelling from the front seat
 
Am7              C                G  G
   Memories and pictures take me back
         D
And live on

It's been a lot of summers since '73
 
Looking back now I can still seeeeeee
