Capo: 1
[Intro]
[G]You were wearing that black dress,
[Cadd9]coat and cowboy boots.
[G]he was there but I didn't care,
[Cadd9]too busy staring at you.
[D]pouring rain with them blue lights flashing,
[Cadd9]in the hills of Appalachia.
[D]close to tears with her makeup smeared
[Cadd9]I asked her what had happened.
[Chorus]
[G]I know that she ain't ready,
[D]she won't be for a while.
[Em7]he broke her down and when I'm around,
[Cadd9]I can see it in her smile.
[G]shes finally getting closer,
[D]it's just too plain to see.
[Em7]I know that she ain't ready,
[Cadd9]and that's alright with me.
[G] [D] [Em7] [Cadd9]
[Verse]
[G]you were wearing that red dress,
[Cadd9]pearls and those high heels.
[G]I like the way it made you look,
[Cadd9]love the way it made you feel.
[D]I said to you I sure love,
[Cadd9]to do this again.
[D]and you said me too,
[Cadd9]but I'm just not over him.
[Chorus]
[G]I know that she ain't ready,
[D]she won't be for a while.
[Em7]he broke her down and when I'm around,
[Cadd9]I can see it in her smile.
[G]shes finally getting closer,
[D]it's just too plain to see.
[Em7]I know that she ain't ready,
[Cadd9]and that's alright with me.
[G] [D] [Em7] [Cadd9]
[Bridge]
[D]she started calling be baby,
and two years later I was
[Cadd9]down on one knee.
[D]ring in hand,
I said I'm your man and girl
[Cadd9]will you marry me?
[Outro]
[G]she said you know that I'm ready,
[D]I have been for a while.
[Em7]when the bells sound and you turn around,
[Cadd9]I'll be walking down the aisle.
[G]this will only bring us closer,
[D]it's just too plain to see,
[Em7]I know that we're ready,
[Cadd9]and that's alright with me.
