Tommy got off at the Texaco
D A
Came bustin' in to Norma's Cafe
E
Said come on man we gotta go
D A
You know how those part girls hate to wait
E
Filled up his daddy's trunk with ice and beer
D A
Yeah he was always stealin' the old man's car
E
Radio never came in too clear
D A
So I'd bang out one on my piece of junk guitar
F#m G
Yeah we ruled from the blacktop
D A
To the levee where the party never stopped
E
Yeah there was power in the night
F#m G
The spirit was alive when we would sing
A E D G
Sha na na na na na na na
A
When We were kings
verse 2
A E
Sittin' around the fire one night Tommy called my name
D A
I turned around he said hey what do ya think
E
Had his arm around the prettiest girl I'd ever seen
D A
He kissed her hard and took another drink
E
I say you must be an angel puttin' up with this guy
D A
She laughed and said play me some Rolling Stones
E
I couldn't let that chance go by
D A
Yeah I sang her "You Can't Always Get What you Want"
F#m G
Yeah we ruled from the blacktop
D A
To the levee where the party never stopped
E
Yeah there was power in the night
F#m G
The spirit was alive when we would sing

verse 3
A E
That was the fall of '69
D A
I guess Uncle Sam was hedging his bet
E
Tommy's number came up he said "Hey, I'll be fine"
D A
"I'll teach 'em a lesson they'll never forget"
E
Angel and I went to wave goodbye
D A
I guess we'd always thought we'd see him again
E
You know I took her out after that a couple of times
D A
We always just wound up talkn' 'bout him
F#m G
Yeah we ruled from the blacktop
D A
To the levee where the party never stopped
E
Yeah there was power in the night
F#m G
The spirit was alive when we would sing
