Intro: A D G (x2)

A                                     D 
Well I went down to the Grundy County Auction 
      A                             E 
Where I saw something I just had to have 
   A                                  D 
My mind told me I should proceed with caution 
       A                 E                      A 
But my heart said, "Go a head an' make a bid on that!" 

A 
An' I said, hey, pretty lady, won'cha gi'me a sign 
I'd give anything to make you mine all mine 
     D                   G                 A 
I'll do your biddin' an' be at your beckon call 
Yeah, I never seen anyone lookin' so fine 
Man, I gotta have her, she's a one-of-a-kind 
    D           E 
I'm goin' once, goin' twice, 
    A 
I'm sold! on the lady in the second row 
She's an eight, she's a nine, she's a ten, I know 
She's got ruby red lips, blond hair, blue eyes 
                              G 
An' I'm about to bid my heart good-bye!

A D G 

A                                             D 
Well, the auctioneer was goin' about a mile a minute 
       A                                E 
He was takin' bids an' callin' them out loud 
    A                            D 
An' I guess I was really gettin' in it 
       A              E             A 
'Cause I just shouted out above the crowd! 

    A 
I'm sold! On the lady in the long black dress 
Well she won my heart it was no contest 
With her ruby red lips, blond hair, blue eyes 
                               G 
Well I'm about to bid my heart good-bye! 

Instrumental 
A D A 

      E 
Yeah, we found love on the auction block 
      F#m 
An' I hauled her heart away 
    G 
Now we still love to laugh about 
    E 
The way we met that day 

A 
An' I said, hey, pretty lady, won'cha gi'me a sign 
I'd give anything to make you mine all mine 
     D                   G                 A 
I'll do your biddin' an' be at your beckon call 
Yeah, I never seen anyone lookin' so fine 
Man, I gotta have her, she's a one-of-a-kind 
    D           E 
I'm goin' once, goin' twice, 
    A 
I'm sold! on the lady in the second row 
She's an eight, she's a nine, she's a ten, I know 
She's got ruby red lips, blond hair, blue eyes 
                              G 
An' I'm about to bid my heart good-bye!
