[Verse 1]
[D]She[G] st[Asus4]arted[A]
[G]her
new life ten [Asus4]dollars in d[D]ebt,
[G]That's all it took to get star[A]ted back [D]then.
A [G]trip to the courthouse
[D]across the state line,
[A]No-one could [Asus4]could stop her,
She'd made up [A]her mind.
He was [G]eighteen,
[Asus4]an she wa[A]sn't;

[Verse 2]
But she said she [D]was,
And never thought twice.
And came back [G]home as
my daddy's [Asus4]wife.
She [A]just shook her [D]head
when her mama said:
[Bm]"Are you sure he's the one?"
[G]An'[D] she[Em][Asus4][A]

[Interlude 1]
was.
[D][G][Asus4][A]

[Verse 3]
[G]He took a job [A]and farmed on [D]the [G]side;
He made the ends meet,
but [A]she kept 'em [D]tied.[G]
Chganges were comin'
to [D]their little world,
She said: [Asus4]"What would you like?
"A [A]boy or a girl?"
And he said: [G]"Are [A]you?"

[Verse 4]
An' she said she [D]was,
And never thought twice.
'Bout takin' the nex[G]t step in
building their [Asus4]lives.
[A]Soon there were [D]three and she tried to be,
[Bm]Everything to us,[G][D][Em]
[Asus4]An' she was.[D]

[Verse 5]
[G]Those precious moments
[Asus4]turned into years,
[A]In what see[D]med like
[A]the blink of an [Bm]eye.[A]
[G]I held her hand as I l[D]eaned
down to ask her,
[Em]"Momma, are you ready to say
[Asus4]goodbye?"

[Verse 6]
[A]An' she said she [D]was,
But she thought twice,
Holdin' my [G]hand as she
let go of [Asus4]life.
[A]Daddy always [D]said a
woman like her[Bm],
Would be hard to give [G]up.[D][Em]
[Asus4]An' she was. (She was.)
[Bm]

[Verse 7]
[G][D]
If there [Em]ever was a picture
[Asus4]of love,[A]
She was.
