[Verse]AThe first thing I remember, I was lyin' in my bedEI couldn't have been no more than one or twoAAnd I remember there's a radio, comin' from the room next doorEAnd my mother laughed the way some ladies doB7 EWhen it's late in the evening, and all the music's seeping through[Verse]AThe next thing I remember, I am walkin' down the streetEFeelin' all right, I'm with my boys, I'm with my troops, yeahAAnd down along the avenue some guys were shooting poolEAnd I heard the sound of a cappella groups, yeahB7 ESingin' late in the evening, and all the girls out on the stoops, yeah[Verse]AThen I learned to play some lead guitar, I was underage in this funky barEI stepped outside to smoke myself a 'J'AWhen I come back to the room, everybody just seemed to moveEAnd I turned my amp up loud and I began to playB7 EAnd it was late in the evening, and I blew that room away[Instrumental]A A E E A A E E B7 B7 E E[Verse]AThe first thing I remember, when you came into my lifeEI said I'm gonna get that girl, no matter what I doAWell, I guess I'd been in love before and once or twice I been on the floorEBut I never loved no one the way that I loved youB7 EIt was late in the evening and all the music seeping through[Outro]A A E E A A E E B7 B7 E E
