G 
We walked alone in the rain and lightning 
C                D7 
When you were my baby 
G 
So much in love it was almost frightening  
C                D7 
When you were my baby  
C                D7     
Everybody called you a fool  
C                      D7 
When you wouldn't play by the rules  
C             D7 
Everybody was wrong, whoa whoa 

G 
There was nowhere to run away to  
C                D7 
When you were my baby 
G 
Everybody began to hate you 
C                D7 
When you were my baby 
C           D7    
Time wasn't on our side  
C         D7 
Me and my foolish pride  
C               D7 
Then I said goodbye, whoa whoa 

D7                       Am      C     D7 
Now you've gone away and left me on my own  
                         Am      C     D7 
Now I'm walking down the highway all alone  
                     Am      C     D7 
On a rainy night and crying out my eyes 
 Am      C     D7 
Crying out my eyes 
 Am      C     G      C      D7 
Crying out my, crying out my eyes  

G 
We were young, yeah, but old enough to...  
C                D7 
When you were my baby 
G 
And I just couldn't help but love you  
C                D7 
When you were my baby 
C                D7 
Just the way you wore your hair  
C               D7 
And the way you just didn't care 
C               D7 
And the way you danced 

G 
Do do, do do do, do do do, do do do do do 
C                D7 
When you were my baby 
G 
Do do, do do do, do do do, do do do do do 
C                D7 
When you were my baby 
G 
Do do, do do do, do do do, do do do do do 
C                D7 
When you were my baby 
G 
Do do, do do do, do do do, do do do do do 
C                D7 
When you were my baby
