[Verse 1]
G            C                   G              C
I was just a young man, A little wet behind the ears
G                  C                     G             C
She grew up at the country club with the diamond chandeliers
C                         C                G     C  G  C
I worked at the feed store I was broke and naive
D                            C                    G
She was next in line for the crown to be the rose queen

[Verse 2]
G          C         G               C
I could get alcohol, she had a lot of cash
G                        C                  G            C
We'd watch the June bugs dance around while lying on the grass
C                          C                  G     C  G  C
I knew it wouldn't work out for a hayseed like me
D                               C                   G
But I couldn't resist to steal a kiss from the rose queen


[Bridge]
   D                            C
My momma always told me she was too rich for my blood
    D                       C
Her daddy always said I was never good enough
D                            C                Am
She was just a southern bell lord I made her ring
F                               C              D
Soaking wet from beads of sweat busting at the seams

[Solo]

I guess I'm only good enough once
