[Verse1]
[D]It start[A]started way ba[G]back in third grade
[D]I used to [A]sit beside [G]Emmie Lou Hayes
[D]A pink dress, [A]matching bow, and her [G]pony tail
[G]She kissed me on the school bus but [A]told me not to tell.
[Verse2]
[D]Next day I [A]chased her `round the [G]playground
[D]Across the [A]monkey bars to the mer[G]merry go round
[D]and Emmie L[A]Lou got caught [G]passing me a note
[G]Before the teacher took it I [A]read what she wrote:
[Chorus]
Do you l[D]ove me?, Do you w[Bm]ant to be my f[G]riend?
and if you d[A]do.
Well t[D]hen don't be afraid[Bm] to take me by t[G]he hand
if you wa[A]want to.
I [G]think this is how love go[A]goes, check yes or no.
