Capo 4
Am C
That Crystelle, you temptress, you creature of back booths
G D
So accomplished at dancin' when walkin' would do
Am C
There's a neon fire in your eyes reflecting off a rhinestone tear
G D
Fixed upon your cheek to see who cares
Am D G
And that's way too much for a country boy who stares
"Our life is just a private joke", she said it like that was the punch line
Me, I fell in love now, wouldn't you?
And here's a fine madness in the air it comes and goes like honeysuckle
Sent to you free from what to do
Oh, me I fell in love now, wouldn't you?
Chorus:
C
Oh that Crystelle, she's barely a woman
G
Oh that Crystelle, she's hardly a child
C
Oh that Crystelle, I know she saw me comin'
D G
But doesn't Crystelle have a beautiful smile
She's a reason to be reckless, she's the right to Rock 'n' Roll
She's exactly what they meant when they told you not to go
And her breath's as sweet as chewing gum and her heart's a gold as kingdom come
She's heaven sent and hell bent to run
Oh, me I fell in love now, wouldn't you?
Chorus
Chorus
Oh me, I fell in love now, wouldn't you?
