I HAD A BEAUTIFUL TIME Merle Haggard

A
We met downtown in a barroom,
E7
Both of us needin’ a friend,
You brought me home to your doorstep,
A
It was there you invited me in,
A
We spent the wee hours dancing,
E7
To your favorite home stereo sounds,
We talked about what we been needin',
A
Discussin' our ups and our downs,
A
And I've had a beautiful time,
E7
Holding your heart next to mine,
I poured out my feelin’s while you poured the wine,
A
And I've had a beautiful time.

A
If I seem a wee bit uneasy,
E7
You really sized me up right,
There's somebody home still up waitin’,
A
She probably been waitin’ up all night.
A
I can't say I found any answers,
E7
But you listened while I rattled on,
And you’ve been beautiful lady,
A
And you kept me from bein’ alone.
A
And I've had a beautiful time,
E7
Holding your body next to mine,
You poured out your feelin’s and I poured the wine,
A
And I've had a beautiful time.
A
I've had a beautiful time,
E7
Holding your heart next to mine,
We poured out our feelin’s, then we poured the wine,
A
And I've had a beautiful time.
E7
You poured out your feelin’s while we poured the wine,
A
And I've had a beautiful time.
