When I heard that the theme was 1960's music I had a fun synchronicity, a few weeks ago we watched the show Patriot (really great show and I highly recommend!) and the intro used Train Song by Vashti Bunyan. It got super stuck in my head so I started learning it. The song was released in 1966 so I had to record it as an entry!
This song is short and sweet and seems deceptively simple. The chords are quite easy but the lyrics don't leave a lot of space to breathe 😂
Here's my entry on twitter:

Train Song by Vashti Bunyan lyrics:
Traveling north, traveling north to find you
Train wheels beating, the wind in my eyes
Don't even know what I'll say when I find you
Call out your name, love, don't be surprised
It's so many miles and so long since I've met you
Don't even know what I'll find when I get to you
But suddenly now I know where I belong
It's many hundred miles and it won't be long
It won't be long
It won't be long
It won't be long
Nothing at all in my head to say to you
Only the beat of the train I'm on
Nothing I've learned all my life on the way to you
Only our love, it's over and gone
It's so many miles and so long since I've met you
Don't even know what I'll find when I get to you
But suddenly now I know where I belong
It's many hundred miles and it won't be long
It won't be long
It won't be long
It won't be long
