Only Sixteen:Sam Cooke.
#23 in 1959.

#1. (Capo 5th fret for original.)
C                     F       G
She was only sixteen, only sixteen.
G           C
I loved her so.
C                        F       G
But she was too young to fall in love,
G                      C
And I was too young to know.

#2.
C                        F             G
We'd laugh and we'd sing and do little things,
G                  C
that made my heart glow.
C                        F       G
But she was too young to fall in love,
G                      C
And I was too young to know.

CHORUS:
F         G7      C
Why did I give my heart so fast?
F             G7      C
It never will happen again.
C   F            C
But I was a mere lad of sixteen,
D                      G
I've aged a year since then.

#3.
C                     F       G
She was only sixteen, only sixteen,
G                    C
with eyes that would glow.
C                        F       G
But she was too young to fall in love,
G                      C
And I was too young to know.

CHORUS:

REPEAT:#3.
ADD:
C                        F       G
But she was too young to fall in love,
G                      C
And I was too young to know.(x2)Fade.
