[Verse]

               DmDm G+G           C majorC  FF C majorC
The attic's filled with records unheard of for many years
             DmDm  G+G           C majorC
When the radio plays old songs she has no time for tears
              A minorAm G+G     A minorAm     FF
She skipped the class reunion for the homecoming queen
              C majorC      G+G           FF  C majorC
And she knows you can't go back, friends, to sweet little sixteen.

[Chorus]

And the Queen of 1959 is happy trying to be
FF      G7G7       A minorAm       FF
A augmentedA dedicated lady, she's got love for her family

My favorite cheer leader finds her hair streaked with grey.
           DmDm  G+G           C majorC
Instead of drive-in movies she'd rather see a play.
          A minorAm G+G          FF
I know that her initials are carved in a desk somewhere
                 C majorC   G+G               FF  C majorC
And like rock and roll heroes, ponytails have been combed from her hair.


[Chorus]

And the Queen of 1959 is happy trying to be
FF      G7G7      A minorAm         FF
A augmentedA dedicated mother and a wife and a friend to me
     A minorAm        FF
And she sure looks good to me

She's my everything, she treats me like a king
     C majorC
She's a lady.
