INTRO : D,A,G .

VERSE :
She said, I was seven and you were nine
     D      
I looked at you like the stars that shined
A
In the sky, the pretty lights
G
And our daddies used to joke about the two of us
D
Growing up and falling in love and our mamas smiled
A                               G
And rolled their eyes and said oh my my my 
 G                      A         Em
  
CHORUS:

Take me back to the house in the backyard tree
 D
Said you'd beat me up, you were bigger than me
A                                   
You never did, you never did
G
Take me back when our world was one block wide
D
I dared you to kiss me and ran when you tried
A
Just two kids, you and I...
G
Oh my my my my
D              G       D      G


VERSE:
Well, I was sixteen when suddenly
D
I wasn't that little girl you used to see
A
But your eyes still shined like pretty lights
G
And our daddies used to joke about the two of us
D
They never believed we'd really fall in love
A
And our mamas smiled and rolled their eyes
G
And said oh my my my...
A                Em


CHORUS:
Take me back to the creek beds we turned up
D
Two A.M. riding in your truck and all I need is you next to me
A                                  G
Take me back to the time we had our very first fight
D
The slamming of doors instead of kissing goodnight
A
You stayed outside till the morning light
G
Oh my my my my
D             G         D         G


VERSE:
A few years had gone and come around
D
We were sitting at our favorite spot in town
A
And you looked at me, got down on one knee
G


CHORUS:
Take me back to the time when we walked down the aisle
D
Our whole town came and our mamas cried
A
You said I do and I did too
G
Take me home where we met so many years before
D
We'll rock our babies on that very front porch
A
After all this time, you and I
G

ENDING:
I'll be eighty-seven; you'll be eighty-nine
D
I'll still look at you like the stars that shine
A
In the sky, oh my my my... 
G               Em           D
