     Em       D             C          Bm 
When I was a young man and never been kissed  
           Am         Bm7   Em 
I got to thinking it over what I had missed.  
Em          D       C              Bm 
I got me a girl, I kissed her and then, and then, 
Am     Bm7       Em 
    Oh Lord, I kissed her again.  
Chorus  
G    D9  Em      B7          Em 
She had kisses sweeter than wine, she had 
G    D9   Em      B7           Em 
Oh  oh  kisses sweeter than wine 
     Em       D             C          Bm 
I asked her to marry and be my sweet wife  
           Am         Bm7   Em 
And we would be so happy the rest of our lives  
Em          D       C              Bm 
I begged and I pleaded like a natural man  
Am     Bm7       Em 
And then, Oh Lord, she gave me her hand 
Chorus  
G    D9  Em      B7          Em 
She had kisses sweeter than wine, she had 
G    D9   Em      B7           Em 
Oh  oh  kisses sweeter than wine 
     Em       D             C          Bm 
I worked mighty hard and so did my wife 
           Am         Bm7   Em 
Workin' hand in hand to make a good life  
Em          D       C              Bm 
With corn in the field and wheat in the bins  
Am     Bm7       Em 
I was, Oh Lord, the father of twins  
Chorus 
G    D9  Em      B7          Em 
She had kisses sweeter than wine, she had 
G    D9   Em      B7           Em 
Oh  oh  kisses sweeter than wine 
     Em       D             C          Bm 
Our children they numbered just about four  
           Am         Bm7   Em 
They all had sweethearts knockin' at the door  
Em          D       C              Bm 
They all got married and they didn't hesitate  
Am     Bm7       Em 
I was, Oh Lord, the grandfather of eight  
Chorus 
G    D9  Em      B7          Em 
She had kisses sweeter than wine, she had 
G    D9   Em      B7           Em 
Oh  oh  kisses sweeter than wine 
     Em       D             C          Bm 
Now that we're old, and ready to go,  
           Am         Bm7   Em 
We get to thinkin' what happened a long time ago.  
Em          D       C              Bm 
We had a lot of kids, trouble and pain,  
Am     Bm7       Em 
But, Oh Lord, we'd do it again.  
Chorus 
G    D9  Em      B7          Em 
She had kisses sweeter than wine, she had 
G    D9   Em      B7           Em 
Oh  oh  kisses sweeter than wine
