There was a time
F
There was a place
G F
There was your name
C
It was your face
C
I was sixteen
F
Thought I knew the plan
G F
You were my girl
C
and I was your man
Late nights on the phone
Late nights in the car
Late nights chasing you
Where ever you were
Maybe those were the days
I know those were my nights
I left them so far
So dim to those lights
[Refrão] F G C
That even when I dream at night
F G C
I cannot see your face
F G C Am
Well, I close my eyes and softly say
F G C
Those were my younger days
Instrumental Break
Friday nights at the park
Pep rallies at school
You cheering for me
Me playin' for you
Sometimes I look back
but I really can't see
That girl that I loved
My young sweet Marie
