(Main riff)
Our house had the biggest patio
               D  Dsus4  D
Our house had all the summer shade
       (Main riff)
We had patio lanterns
I'd spend half the night making lemonade
                     D  Dsus4  D
Which we drank a lot cause we were all so shy
    (Main riff)
Shy and nervous

E         D
 Who was gonna be, who would be the first to dance
E         D                        (Main riff)
 Who was gonna be, who would be the first to kiss under those patio lanterns

E                  D   A    Asus4  A
 Those patio lanterns, they were the stars in the sky
E           D    A    Asus4  A
 Those patio lanterns, lighting up our lives
E                  D   A    Asus4  A
 Those patio lanterns, they were the stars in the sky
E                   D
 Those patio lanterns, lighting up our lives

Oh, those patio lanterns


(Main riff)
And I was stuck on Joy, that was her name
                    D  Dsus4  D
We didn't talk much, she was a nervous girl
        (Main riff)
I was a nervous boy
We stuck together like glue on glue
                        D  Dsus4  D
Dancing to an old song, Bobby Vinton's Blue on Blue
         (Main riff)
Heartache on heartache


E         D
 Who was gonna be, who would be the first to dance
E         D                        (Main riff)
 Who was gonna be, who would be the first to kiss under those patio lanterns

 Those patio lanterns, they were the stars in the sky
E           D    A    Asus4  A
 Those patio lanterns, lighting up our lives
E                  D   A    Asus4  A
 Those patio lanterns, they were the stars in the sky
E                   D
 Those patio lanterns, lighting up our lives

Oh, those patio lanterns
