Summer Of 59

F D A
F D A

[Verse 1]
A
In the summer of '59
D
Dandelions shine up through the pavement
A
Pedal pushers in the bushes
D                             A
Waspy pinches, sixteen inches round her waist
         F#m        D            A
And it’s all in the name of good taste

[Verse 2]
A
In the summer of '59
D
Dandelions shine up through the pavement
A
Fluorescent socks and fishnet stockings
D                                 A
Dirty combs from ideal homes, and girls are chaste
         F#m        D            A
And it’s all in the name of good taste

[Chorus]
     D
Good taste, nobody knew what we knew then
     A
Good taste, look at the boys turn into men
     D
Good taste, nobody knew what we knew then
A                      C#m  F#m
Look at the girls turn into women
        E
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
A                      C#m  F#m
Look at the girls turn into women
        E
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
A                        C#m  F#m
Some of the girls turned into women
F
Ooh

[Verse 3]
A
In the summer of ’59
D
Dandelions shine up through the pavement
A
Council houses, drainpipe trousers
D                                   A
Ciggy packs and long black jackets, ties are laced
         F#m        D            A
And it’s all in the name of good taste

[Chorus]
     D
Good taste, nobody knew what we knew then
     A
Good taste, look at the boys turn into men
     D
Good taste, nobody knew what we knew then
A                      C#m  F#m
Look at the girls turn into women
        E
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
A                      C#m  F#m
Look at the girls turn into women
        E
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
A                        C#m  F#m
Some of the girls turned into women
F
Ooh
