It was a time like no one else has ever had
Em                   A
We learned to drive, we learned to fly
Em              A
We sent a man into the sky
     Em               A                G    G/F#
When he walked on the moon, we were so glad

We had to learn to see the other side
       Em                 A
We had demonstrations and liberations
Em                    A
Great depressions and good vibrations
    Em                   A                  G    G/F#
And doors that once were closed were opened wide
    Em            A   G       A       D
Oh, the twentieth century was quite a ride

We had movin' pictures and radio
    Em        G        A
And Broadway, country, rock and roll
   G     F#m7
In 1900, who'd a bet
     Em                    A
we'd all be surfing on the internet

Yeah, the twentieth century was a heck of a show
   D                   A                  G    G/F#
We all had our fifteen minutes, don't you know
Em              A
Assembly lines, celebrities,
Em                      A
the spotlight shined on you and me
    Em        A              G   G/F#
And everybody got a standin' O
      Em            A   G          A        D
Yeah, the twentieth century was a heck of a show

Telegraph to television
   G     F#m7
In 1900, who'd a known
     Em               A
we'd all wind up with pocket phones

Verse:
    D            A                    G
The twentieth century wasn't all that long
D                    A            G    G/F#
Just a hundred years has come and gone
Em               A
We can't go back even if we try
Em                     A
So I'll just smile and wave goodbye
   Em             A              G
To see it leavin' makes me kinda sad
         D                A             G   G/F#
It was a time like no one else has ever had
    Em            A   G          A        D
Oh, the twentieth century wasn't all that bad
