Alan Jackson

^G I was fifteen, she was ^D eighteen,
^G The prettiest thing I'd ^C ever seen in ^G my life.
An' I loved her at first ^D sight.
I found ^G her in Mari ^D etta, a ^G town north of ^C Atlanta.
I brought her ^G home to see my ^D folks,
They loved her ^G too.
(Verse 2)
We were together for a ^D long time,
Thought it ^G would be for ^C all time.
But things ^G change and re-arrange, she had to ^D go.
She left me ^G cryin' in '7 ^C 9, an airline ^G pilot in Caro ^C line.
I was a ^G wreck, can't drive a ^D check:
It broke my ^G heart.
(chorus)
My first ^C love was an older ^D woman.
^C There's been many since,
But there'll ^D never be another.
Built in ^G nineteen fifty- ^C five, snowshoe ^G white, over ^C drive,
I should've never ^G sold her, I'll always ^D love her,
She was ^G mine.
Instrumental Break.
(same as verse 1)
Years went by, teardrops dried;
I got her back, I was surprised.
In '93, a gift to me on Christmas Eve.
We were both older, so I restored her.
Could've sold her, for a lot more.
But I will never, she's mine forever,
Until I go.
(chorus)
^C I'll never ^G sell her, she's mine for ^D ever,
I love her ^G so.
