Sounded Good At The Time

G                    Em
Standing by the door checking my hair
G                 Em
Waiting on you to take me nowhere
G                            Em
We were always looking for a rock and roll Saturday night
Am
We're sitting on hold with a radio station
C
Listen all night to hear my dedication
D
A song to tell the whole town you were mine


   G                                     Em
We sang, like we wrote every word to the whole damn thing
     G                                Em
Like nothing would ever change and we danced
     G                                    Em
Like time was really slipping through our hands
             Am
Oh, when you said I love you, you might have been lying
C                               D
But it sure sounded good at the time


     G              Em
Just a hand me down Pontiac
G                             Em
See how many friends we could pile in the back
G                      Em
Saved all summer for a ticket on the front row
Am                        C
Didn't have a plan and we ran out of money
D
Car broke down but it's still kind of funny
         G                        Em
Cause we hitched a ride with some hippy guy
           D
And barely made it to the show


   G                                     Em
We sang, like we wrote every word to the whole damn thing
     G                                Em
Like nothing would ever change and we danced
     G                                    Em
Like time was really slipping through our hands
             Am
Oh, when you said I love you, you might have been lying
C                               D
But it sure sounded good at the time


G                         Em
We did some wrong, but we did it right
       G
But it sure sounded so good at the time
D
You were mine, alright, whoa oh, alright


   G                                     Em
We sang, like we wrote every word to the whole damn thing
     G                                Em
Like nothing would ever change and we danced
     G                                    Em
Like time was really slipping through our hands
             Am
Oh, when you said I love you, you might have been lying
C                               D
But it sure sounded good at the time

Am             C
It's a melody, on my mind
G                 Em
So we'd never say goodbye
        D
We sing on and on and on (on and on)
