The (Bb)first thing I remember
I was lying in my bed
I couldn't of been no more
Than one or (F)two

I (Bb)remember there's a radio
Comin' from the room next door
And my mother laughed
The way some ladies (F)do
When it's (C)late in the evening
And the music's seeping (F)through

The (Bb)next thing I remember
I am walking down the street
I'm feeling all right
I'm with my boys, I'm with my (F)troops, yeah
  
And (Bb)down along the avenue
Some guys were shooting pool
And I heard the sound
Of a cappella (F)groups, yeah  
Singing (C)late in the evening
And all the girls out on the (F)stoops, yeah

Then I (Bb)learned to play some lead guitar
I was underage in this funky bar
And I stepped outside to smoke myself a(F) "J"
And (Bb)when I came back to the room
Everybody just seemed to move
And I turned my amp up loud and I began to (F)play
And it was (C)late in the evening
And I blew that room (F)away

(Bb)   (F)
(Bb)   (F)
(C)    (F)  

The (Bb)first thing I remember
When you came into my life
I said I'm gonna get that girl
No matter what I (F)do
 
Well I (Bb)guess I'd been in love before
And once or twice I been on the floor
But I never loved no one
The way that (F)I loved you
And it was (C)late in the evening
And all the music seeping (F)through

(Bb)   (F)
(Bb)   (F)
(C)    (F)

Great first song
Focus on clean chords — let every string ring. Speed comes by itself once the shapes are right.
