When Times Were Good
(Country and Western, Moderate Tempo)
Verse 1: You said you'd never leave me said you'd always stay
Said you'd always would love me that you'd never go away
You said we'd be together, said it from the heart
For worse or for better, you said it from the start
Chorus: But you have change, you're not the same
And I'd change you back if I could
But you use to love me, use to love me
When times were good
Verse 2: Said it didn't matter if we were rich or poor
But all my dreams were shattered when you walked out that door
Thought our love was greater than material things
Guess all that matters is the gold in your ring (Repeat Chorus)
Bridge: Why can't you love me like you use to do?
I put you above me, why can't you
What's the difference if were rich or poor
Money last a lifetime love for evermore (Repeat Chorus)
Verse 3: I thought you would be mine till the end of our days
How can you be mine when you throw it all away?
I would love you forever but now you're gone
If this is forever I can't go on
Ending Chorus: But you have change, you're not the same
And I'd change you back if I could
But you use to love me, use to love me
I wish times were good.
