Tone: [D]
Capo: No Capo
She said, [D]I was seven and you were nine
I [A]looked at you like the stars that shine
[G]In the sky, the pretty lights
And our [D]daddies used to joke about the two of us
[A]Growing up and falling in love and our [G]mamas smiled
And rolled their eyes and said [Em]oh my my [A]my
Take me [D]back to the house in the backyard tree
Said you'd [A]beat me up, you were bigger than me
You [G]never did, you never did
Take me [D]back when our world was one block wide
I [A]dared you to kiss me and ran when you tried
[G]Just two kids, you and I
Oh [D]my my my my[G] [D] [G] [D] [G]
Well, [D]I was sixteen when suddenly
I [A]wasn't that little girl you used to see
But your [G]eyes still shined like pretty lights
And our [D]daddies used to joke about the two of us
They [A]never believed we'd really fall in love
And our [G]mamas smiled and rolled their eyes
And said [Em]oh my my [A]my
Take me [D]back to the creek beds we turned up
[A]Two A.M. riding in your truck and [G]all I need is you next to me
Take me [D]back to the time we had our very first fight
The [A]slamming of doors instead of kissing goodnight
You [G]stayed outside till the morning light
Oh [D]my my my my[G] [D] [G] [D] [G]
[D]A few years had gone and come around
We [A]were sitting at our favorite spot in town
And you [G]looked at me, got down on one knee
Take me [D]back to the time when we walked down the aisle
Our [A]whole town came and our mamas cried
You [G]said I do and I did too
Take me [D]home where we met so many years before
We'll [A]rock our babies on that very front porch
After [G]all this time, you and I
I'll be [D]eighty-seven; you'll be eighty-nine
I'll still [A]look at you like the stars that shine
[G]In the sky, oh [Em]my my my[D]
