Capo 4th Fret
Intro: (G) (C) (Am) (C)
You were the (G) first one I ever (C) hurt for
I was afr(Am)aid (C) of holdin' your (G) hand
Out on a back road I told you I (C) love you
You made a (Am) country boy (C) feel like a (G) man
Somewhere a (G) lover lives for a (C) moment
When he can (Am) touch her (C) and give her his (G) heart
Somewhere a strong man waits for a (C) woman
And nothing in (Am) this world (C) can keep them ap(G)art
I laughed at the (G) way you were, so funny to (C) look back now
Oh you were (Am) all, (C) all I dreamed (G) of
Sometimes I wonder if we would have (C) lasted
If I was a (Am) fool (C) to ever give you (G) up
Repeat Chorus
Oh you're (Am) still on my mind on a (C) thin shadowed ledge
No (G) matter what I do or (D) say
But the (Am) river of time can (C) take off the edge
But they (F) can't take the rock a(G)way
Repeat Chorus Twice
