Tuning:E A D G B E
Capo:2nd fret

[Intro]
C     F  G
 
 
[Verse]
     F
She started her new life
     G          C
Ten dollars in debt
     F                         G            C
And that's all it took to get started back then
 
   F                          C
A trip to the court house, across the state line
G
No one could stop her, she'd made up her mind
 
        F             G
He was eighteen, she wasn't
 
 
[Chorus]
              C
She said she was
 
Never thought twice
           F                  G
Came back home as my daddy's wife
 
                    C
She just shook her head
                Am                           F  C Dm7 G
When her momma said, "Are you sure he's the one?"
     C  Em  C
She was
 
 
[Verse]
F                   G             C
He took a job, and farmed on the side
F                          G             C
He made the ends meet but she kept them tight
 F                      C
Changes were coming to their little world
            G
She said, "What would you like, a boy or a girl?"
           F       G
He said, "Are you?"
 
 
[Chorus]
              C
She said she was
 
Never thought twice
               F                             G
By taking the next steps and building their lives
 
                 C
Soon there were three
             Am               F C Dm7 G
She tried to be everything to us
         C
And she was
 
 
[Break]
 F                      G
Those precious moments turned into years
         C             G/B         Am  G/B
In what seemed like a blink of the eye
F                     C
I held her hand as I leaned down to tell her
 Dm7                   Gsus4     G
Momma, are you ready to say goodbye?
 
 
[Chorus]
              C
She said she was
 
She thought twice
            F                     G
Holding my hand as she let go of life
 
              C                Am                        F C Dm G
Daddy always said a woman like her would be hard to give up
        Am Am  F C
And she was
 
          Dm                   Gsus4 G7
If there ever was a picture of love
     C C F G   C
She was
