Verse
D
They're building up big houses
Back behind the school
Asus4
Where we used to drink our beer on Friday nights
G D
And pretend that we were lovers in your car
D
We can't afford to live there
So we drive on past their marble and glass
Asus4 G
Hoping that this blue collar town of ours
D
Won't ever lose its balls
Asus4 G
I was just a little girl
Asus4 G
When your hand brushed by my hand
Asus4 G
And I will be an old woman
D
Happy to have spent my whole life with one man
D
Behind that school we found romance
We laid in the dirt and took off our shirts
Asus4
While the lucky ones would fly away
G D
On planes to other cities, other towns
D
Now they're building up houses
Big enough to lose your love
Asus4 G
Big enough to never even see
D
One another in the dark
Asus4 G
I was just a little girl
Asus4 G
When your hand brushed by my hand
Asus4 G
And I will be an old woman
D
Happy to have spent my whole life with one man
Asus4 G
One man, one town is all I need
Asus4
A simple plan to guide me
G
Through the simple life I lead
Asus4 G
I have seen the ocean and I have seen the sky
D
I do not need a big house or the ability to fly
D
We'll remember the summers
The crumbling town streets, running from police
Asus4
And acting like we'd leave this place
G D
The minute we ever had the chance
Asus4 G
I was just a little girl
Asus4 G
When your hand brushed by my hand
Asus4 G
And I will be an old woman
D
Happy to have spent my whole life with one man
