Now in my day I've made some foolish moves

Bb          D             Gm           Eb
But back then, I didn't worry 'bout a thing

Bb    F/A     Gm      F     Edim         Eb
And now again I still wonder to myself

Bb        D              Gm        Eb
Was it the sweet love or the way that she could sing
[Chorus]
