Mary's Song Oh My My My

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

D
take me back to the house in the backyard tree
Bm
said you'd beat me up, you were bigger than me
     C C   G        C C   G
you never did, you never did
D
take me back when our world was one block wide
Bm
i dared you to kiss me and ran when you tried
 C   C   G            C C G      D  D  D  D
just two kids, you and I... oh my my my my

Bm   D   Bm  Bm  G

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

D
take me back to the creek beds we turned up
Bm                             C   C G           C    C  G
2a.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
Bm
the slamming of doors instead of kissing goodnight
    C      C   G            C   C   G        D  D  D  D
you stayed outside till the morning light oh my my my my

Bm  D  Bm  Bm  G

D
a few years had gone and come around
Bm
we were sitting at our favorite spot in town
        C      C  G            C  C   G
and you looked at me, got down on one knee

D
take me back to the time when we walked down the aisle
Bm
our whole town came and our mamas cried
    C    C G      C  C   G
you said I do and I  did too
D
take me home where we met so many years before
Bm
we'll rock our babies on that very front porch
      C   C    G          C  C G
after all this time, you and I

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