     G                      D                     E                           G
Well me and my lady had our first big fight, So I drove around till I saw the neon lights,
      C                 G                       Am
At a corner bar, and it just seemed right, so I pulled up

      G                       D        E                       G
Not a soul around but the ol' barkeep, Down at the end lookin half asleep,
    C                    G                          Am
But he walked up and said what'll it be? I said the Good Stuff____

C                              G        C                   G
He didn't reach around for the whiskey, He didn't pour me a beer,
C                        G           E                   D
His blue eyes kinda went misty, Said you can't find that here,


[Chorus]
               G                      D           E                            G
Cause it's the first long kiss on our second date Mamma's all worried when you get home late
    C                       G                           C                    D
And droppin the ring in the spaghetti plate, Cause your hands are shaking so much ___
         G                  D                E                       G
It's the way she looks with rice in her hair Eatin burnt suppers the whole first year
    C                     G                    Am  D                      G

He grabbed a carton of milk and poured a glass I smiled and said I'll have some of that
   C                          G                     Am
We sat there and talked as an hours passed like ol' friends

      G                              D                     E                G
Saw a black and white picture and it caught my stare Was a pretty girl with bouffant hair
        C                 G                       Am
He said that's my Bonnie, takin bout a year after we wed



        C                       G               C                    G
He said spent five years in the bottle when the cancer took her from me
    C                   G                          E                           D
But I've been sober for three years now, Cause the one thing stronger than the whiskey was the


[Chorus]
    G                   D            E                       G
The sight of her holdin my baby girl The way she adored that string of pearls
  C                          G                C                       D
I gave her the day that our youngest boy Earl Married his high school love___
           G                 D              E                        G
And it's a new T-shirt sayin I'm a Grand Pa Being right there as our time got small
