Track 3 of 10 on the album "Should I Come Home" (1979) [Intro] D E A7 D A [Verse 1]
    A                               D
You found your greener pasture in a mansion on a hill

       A                               D                E
With a flashy foreign car to drive and lots of time to kill

         A                             A7             D
Lord, my mind keeps on remembering the days of me and you

             E       A7      D          A           E       A   A7
When we were down to nothing... nothing sure looked good on you
[Chorus]
    D               E                  D            A
You said you needed simple things that I had plenty of

    D                   A                       D              E
And through the days of dark and rain, we could always live on love

         A                               A7              D
With his style of life, he lured you and you could not refuse

                 E       A7      D          A           E       A
But when we were down to nothing... nothing sure looked good on you
[Interlude] D E A7 D A [Verse 2]
         A                            D
When you honeymooned in Paris, it was carried on the news

      A                                      D         E
And I heard you laughed your cares away on a Caribbean cruise

         A                                 A7                  D
You were always one for dreaming, now your dreams can all come true

                 E       A7      D           A           E       A   A7
But when we were down to nothing...  nothing sure looked good on you
[Chorus]
    D               E                  D            A
You said you needed simple things that I had plenty of

    D                   A                       D              E
And through the days of dark and rain, we could always live on love

         A                               A7              D
With his style of life, he lured you and you could not refuse

                 E       A7      D          A           E       A   A7
But when we were down to nothing... nothing sure looked good on you

          D       E       A7      D          A           E       A
Yes, when we were down to nothing... nothing sure looked good on you
