D G Woo-ooh, woo-ooh D G Time stopped movin' the minute I saw ya Bm You took my Taylor guitar in the city of stars and you made it G Your own (In the city of stars and you made it your own) D G Late night, oh, how I'm missin' those brown eyes Bm Funny I'd rather be fightin' with you than alone in the city we G Knew (Alone in the city, alone in the city we knew) D Four years gone by in the blink of an eye G We were young till we weren't It was fun till it hurt Bm G Now I'm terrified that I'll never find love like yours D If I would've known G Those were the golden years Bm A I would've held you longer that night when you kissed me goodbye G Through your tears D If I would've known G Those were the golden years Bm A G I would've never left you alone when you needed me most, my dear D G 'Cause those were the golden years (woo-ooh, woo-ooh) Bm G Those were the golden years (woo-ooh, woo-ooh) D G I left you under the cherry tree that June Bm G Back at the place where I told you that I loved you way too soon (Loved you way too soon, loved you way too soon) D G Lately, I stare at the pictures you gave me Bm G I can't help wonderin' if you ever stare back at them too (Stare back at them, stare back at them) D If I would've known G Those were the golden years Bm A I would've held you longer that night when you kissed me goodbye G Through your tears D If I would've known G Those were the golden years Bm A G I would've never left you alone when you needed me most, my dear D 'Cause those were the golden years D A Bm G So dance with me under the cherry tree, darlin' D A Bm G We'll act like we're still young and free (mmm) D A Bm G 'Cause I'm still in love with the story of us D A Bm G We were young, but our love, it was real D If I would've known G Those were the golden years Bm A I would've held you longer that night when you kissed me goodbye G Through your tears D If I would've known G Those were the golden years Bm A G I would've never left you alone when you needed me most, my dear D G 'Cause those were the golden years (woo-ooh, woo-ooh) Bm G Those were the golden years (woo-ooh, woo-ooh) D Those were the golden years
