[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
