[Verse 1]
[G]Well, I lived on the [Am]outskirts of town

[Am]All I can do is [C]sit and smile

[Chorus 1]
[G]That's when a spo[Am]rt was a sport
[G]And groovin' was groovin'[Am]
[G]And dancin' meant everyt[Am]hing
[G]We were young and we [Am]were improvin'
[G]Laughin' laughin' with our[Am] friends
[G]Holding hands meant som[Am]ethin' baby
