          D
She said, I was seven and you were nine
A
I looked at you like the stars that shined
Em               G
In the sky, the pretty lights
        D
And our daddies used to joke about the two of us
A                                  Em
Growing up and falling in love and our mamas smiled
    G                         Em        A
And rolled their eyes and said oh my my my

        D
Take me back to the house in the backyard tree
            A
Said you'd beat me up, you were bigger than me
G
You never did, you never did
        D 
Take me back when our world was one block wide
        A
I dared you to kiss me and ran when you tried
G
Just two kids, you and I...
D
Oh my my my my

G D G

D
I was sixteen when suddenly
A
I wasn't that little girl you used to see
         Em                     G
But your eyes still shined like pretty lights
        D
And our daddies used to joke about the two of us
A
They never believed we'd really fall in love
        Em                G
And our mamas smiled and rolled their eyes
         Em
And said oh my my my...

        D
Take me back to the creek beds we turned up
A                                      G
Two A.M. riding in your truck and all I need is you next to me
        D
Take me back to the time we had our very first fight
A
The slamming of doors instead of kissing goodnight
    Em                    G
You stayed outside til the morning light
   D
Oh my my my my

D
A few years had gone and come around
         A
We were sitting at our favorite spot in town
         G                       G
And you looked at me, got down on one knee

        D
Take me back to the time we walked down the aisle
A
Our whole town came and our mamas cried
  G
You said I do and I did too

        D
Take me home were we met so many years before
A
We'll rock our babies on that very front porch
G
After all this time, you and I

D
I'll be eighty-seven; you'll be eighty-nine
A
I'll still look at you like the stars that shine
G            G               D
In the sky, oh my my my...
