Intro: F Eb Bb Dm C
[F] [Eb] [Bb] [C]
It was [F]Labor Day weekend I was [Eb]seventeen
[Bb]I bought a Coke and some gasoline
[F]And I drove [Eb]out to the county [Bb]fair[C]
[F]When I saw her for the [Eb]first time
She was [Bb]standing there in the ticket line
[F]And it all [Eb]started right then and [Bb]there
[C]Oh a [Bb]sailor sky made a [C]perfect sunset
[Dm]And that’s a day I’ll [C]never forget
I had a [F]barbecue stain on my [C]white T-shirt
She was k[Bb]illin' me in that m[C]ini-skirt
[F]Skippin’ rocks on the [C]river by the railr[Dm]oad [C]tracks[Bb]
[C]She had a [F]suntan line and [C]red lipstick
I [Gm]worked so [Am]hard for [Bb]that first [C]kiss and a
[Dm]Heart [C]don’t for[Bb]get [C]something like [F]that[Eb] [Bb] [C]
Well it was [F]five years later on a [Eb]southbound plane
I was [Bb]headin’ down to New Orleans
[F]To meet some friends of [Eb]mine for Mardi [Bb]Gras[C]
[F]When I heard a [Eb]voice from the past
[Bb]Comin’ from a few rows back
And when I [F]looked I couldn’t beli[Eb]eve just what I [Bb]saw
[C]She said, “[Bb]I bet you don’t re[C]member me”
And I said, “[Dm]Only ev’ry other [C]memory”
I had a [F]barbecue stain on my white [C]T-shirt
You were [Bb]killin' me in that [C]mini-skirt
[F]Skippin’ rocks on the [C]river by the railr[Dm]oad [C]track[Bb]s
[C]You had a [F]suntan line and [C]red lipstick
I [Gm]worked so [Am]hard for [B]that first [C]kiss and a
[Dm]Heart [C]don’t for[Bb]get [C]something like [F]that
Instrumental: F Eb Bb Dm C
[F] [Eb] [Bb] [Dm] [C]
[Gm]Like an old photograph time can [F]make a feeling fade
But the [Bb]mem’ry of the first love [C]never fades away
(Note: Do two quick strums for the next six chords)
I had a [F]barbecue stain on my [C]white T-shirt
She was k[Bb]illing me in that m[C]ini-skirt
[F]Skippin’ rocks on the [C]river by the railr[Dm]oad [C]track[Bb]s
[C]She had a [F]suntan line and [C]red lipstick
I [Gm]worked so [Am]hard for [Bb]that first [C]kiss and a
[Dm]Heart [C]don’t for[Bb]get
N.C. Dm C Bb
No, a heart don’t forget
I said, a[Dm] heart [C]don’t for[Bb]get [C]something like [F]that
[Eb] [Bb] Oh, not [Dm]something like [C]that
[F] [Eb] [Bb] [C] [F]
P.S. I hope all the chords got lined up in the right place. If they
didn't, it is confusing and it also makes me look stupid. I promise I had
it perfect before I sent the email, so I'm hoping for the best. Oh yeah, I
love this song.
