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
Oh [G]my my my my
And in a [D]blink of a crinkling eye
I’m [A]sinking, our fingers entwined
Cheeks [Em]pink in the twinkling lights
[G]Tell me ’bout the first time [A]you saw me
I’ll [D]drink what you think and I’m high
From [A]smoking your jokes all damn night
The [Em]brink of a wrinkle in time
[G]Bittersweet 16 [A]suddenly
I’m [D]watching American Pie [A]with you on a Saturday night
Your [Em]friends are around, so be quiet
I’m [A]trying to stifle my sighs
‘Cause I [D]feel so h[A]igh school
ev[Em]erytime I[A] look at you
[D] I just wanna know you better know [A] you better know you better [G] now
I just wanna know you better [Em] know you better [D] know you better now
[D]I just wanna know you better know [A] you better know you better [G] now
I just wanna [Em] know you know you know [A] you
'Cause [D] all I know is we said "Hello"
[A] And your eyes look like coming home
[G] All I know it's simple ain't it? [A] Everything has changed
[D] All I know is we held the door
[A] You'll be mine and I'll be yours
[G] All I know since yesterday is [A] everything has changed
[D] All I know is we said "Hello"
[A] So dust off the highest hopes
[G] All I know is pouring rain and [A] everything has changed
[D] All I know is the new found grace
[A] All my days I know your face
[G] All I know since yesterday is [A]everything has changed
And in a [D]blink of a crinkling eye
[A]Everything has changed
And in a [G]blink of a crinkling eye
[A]Everything has changed
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]
