C              G/B           F
We used to walk along the street
When the porch lights were shining bright
C         G/B             Am7
Before I had somewhere to be
 F               C       G/B    F
Back when we had all night and we were happy
C      G/B                F
I do recall a good while back
we snuck into the circus
C              G/B             Am7        F
You threw your arms around my neck back when
        C    G/B
I deserved it
     F
And we were happy

Chorus:
C                     G/B
When it was good, baby, it was good, baby
Am7
We showed 'em all up
F                            C
No one could touch the way we laughed in the dark
G/B
Talking 'bout your daddy's farm
Am7                F
we were gonna buy someday
     C           G/B F
And we were happy

We used to watch the sun go down
on the boats in the water
That's sorta how I feel right now
And goodbye's so much harder 'cause we were happy

Chorus

Am7    F                 C
Oh, I hate those voices telling me
            G
I'm not in love anymore
Am7             F                    C
But they don't give me choices and that's
                      G
what these tears are for
        C           G/B Am7         F
'Cause we were happy, we were happy

Chorus:
When it was good, baby, it was good, baby
We showed 'em all up
No one could touch the way we laughed in the dark
Talking 'bout your daddy's farm
And you were gonna marry me
And we were happy
We were happy
Oh-oh-oh-oh
We were happy
