Brenda and Eddie were the popular steadies
D D C
And the king and the queen of the prom
G G/B C F C F C
Riding around with the car top down and the radio on
G D D C
Nobody looked any finer
G C
Or was more of a hit at the Parkway Diner
G F E7
We never knew we could want more than that out of life
Am7 G/B C D G
Surely Brenda and Eddie would always know how to survive.
F Em D G
Oooh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
F Em D
Oooh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
G D D C
Brenda and Eddie were still going steady in the summer of '75
G G/B C F C F C
When they decided the marriage would be at the end of July
G D
Everyone said they were crazy
G C
"Brenda you know you're much too lazy
G F E7
Eddie could never afford to live that kind of life."
Am7 G/B C D G
But there we were wavin' Brenda and Eddie goodbye.
F Em D
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
F/C
They got an apartment with deep pile carpet
D G
And a couple of paintings from Sears
F/C
A big waterbed that they bought with the bread
D G
They had saved for a couple of years
F/C
They started to fight when the money got tight
D Em
And they just didn't count on the tears.

F/C
They lived for a while in a very nice style
D C G
But it's always the same in the end
F/C
They got a divorce as a matter of course
D C G
And they parted the closest of freh- ends
F/C
Then the king and the queen went back to the green
D Em
But you can never go back there again.
A7 Am7/D
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh oh
G
Brenda and Eddie had had it already
D D C D C
By the summer of '75
G
From the high to the low
G/B
To the end of the show
C F C F C
For the rest of their lives
G D D C
They couldn't go back to the greasers
G C
The best they could do was pick up the pieces
G F E7
We always knew they would both find a way to get by
Am7 G/B C D
That's all I heard about Brenda and Eddie
Am7 G/B C D
