Well I went down to the Grundy County Auction
      A                             E
Where I saw something I just had to have
   A                                  D
My mind told me I should proceed with caution
       A                 E                      A
But my heart said, "Go a head an' make a bid on that!"

[Chorus1]
A
An' I said, hey, pretty lady, won'cha gi'me a sign
I'd give anything to make you mine all mine
     D                   G                 A
I'll do your biddin' an' be at your beckon call
Yeah, I never seen anyone lookin' so fine
Man, I gotta have her, she's a one-of-a-kind
    D           E
I'm goin' once, goin' twice,
    A
I'm sold! on the lady in the second row
She's an eight, she's a nine, she's a ten, I know
She's got ruby red lips, blond hair, blue eyes
                              G
An' I'm about to bid my heart good-bye!

Well, the auctioneer was goin' about a mile a minute
       A                                E
He was takin' bids an' callin' them out loud
    A                            D
An' I guess I was really gettin' in it
       A              E             A
'Cause I just shouted out above the crowd!

[Chorus2](lines change to this...)
    A
I'm sold! On the lady in the long black dress
Well she won my heart it was no contest
With her ruby red lips, blond hair, blue eyes
                               G
Well I'm about to bid my heart good-bye!

      E
Yeah, we found love on the auction block
      F#m
An' I hauled her heart away
    G
Now we still love to laugh about
    E
The way we met that day

[Chorus1]

An' I said, hey, pretty lady, won'cha gi'me a sign
I'd give anything to make you mine all mine
     D                   G                 A
I'll do your biddin' an' be at your beckon call
Yeah, I never seen anyone lookin' so fine
