[Verse 1]
         C
Life was simple,
F         Am                G   
Roger was working round the 
            C
clock to make a living,
F     Am              G         
No computers, none of that, he 
            C
used his two hands,
F           Am       G
Ignored the cold war
    C          F        Am    G
His wife would keep him warm,
       C         F
On the weekends,
              Am              G   
He'd load the car up with the kids
               C          F
 and they'd go fishing,
           Am            G  
No need to work an extra job, 
               C              F
there's no recession,
              Am       G
Damn right he smiled a lot
          C       F
They lay awake at night
      Am
So in love

[Chorus]
         G
It was a good good year

C          F
 Oh oh ohhh
    Am            G
The kids were all right,
C           F             Am    
"Highway to Hell" beat up 
    F
"Stayin' Alive",
    C                 F
The songs were on the radio

       C        F
In the morning,
      Am             G            
Robin always woke up early in the 
C         F
kitchen,
               Am              
She'd make the coffee, pack his 
 G                    C         F
lunch and then she'd kiss him
             Am       F
And he would hold her tight
     C            F   Am  G
When they were newlyweds
         C        F
He'd say maybe
              Am              
And she would laugh, they knew 
        G            C     F
they'd have another baby
      Am              G      
She'd slave away all day until 
             C         F
dinner was ready,
               Am       G     
And they would dance so slow to 
   C       F        Am
"Just the Way You Are".

[Chorus]
         G
It was a good, good year

C          F

[Bridge]
                        G
All the decades and the years have 
passed,
F                   C             
Not every family is built to last,
 C/B

Am                          C
No time can take away these memories
                  F
Remember when you said to me
                 G
That we'd be all right.

[Chorus]
C          F
 Oh oh ohhh
