[Verse 1]
D G D A7
I thought I had seen pretty girls in my time but that was before I met you
D G D A7 D
I never saw one that I wanted for mine but that was before I met you
[Chorus 1]

I thought I was swinging the world by the tail I thought I could never be blue
D G D A7 D
I thought I'd been kissed and I thought I'd been loved but that was before I met you
[Verse 2]
D G D A7
I wanted to ramble and always be free but that was before I met you
D G D A7 D
I said that no woman could ever hold me but that was before I met you
[Chorus 2]
G D A7
I thought I was swinging the world by the tail I thought I could never be blue
D G D A7 D
I thought I'd been kissed and I thought I'd been loved but that was before I met you

[Verse 3]
D G D A7
They tell me I must reap just what I have sown but darling I hope it's not true
D G D A7 D
For once I made plans about living alone but that was before I met you
[Chorus 3]
G D A7
I thought I was swinging the world by the tail I thought I could never be blue
D G D A7 D
I thought I'd been kissed and I thought I'd been loved but that was before I met you

But that was before I met you
