*** Please note that tuning is a FULL step down.  The reason is because I tune a full step down on
my guitars and capo (2) frets up to get back to standard tuning.  This way I can have any tuning I
want without having to literally re-tune every time. ***
 
 
Tuning a full step down on this song gives it a more rich/full sound.  Please enjoy!

[Intro]
 
G G  D D  C    (x2)
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
G          D           C
It started way back in third grade
G         D          C
I used to sit beside Emmylou Hayes
G             D                     C
A pink dress, matching bow, and her pony tail
C                                    D
She kissed me on the school bus, but told me not to tell
 
G          D                     C
Next day I chased her 'round the playground
G          D                   C
Across the monkey bars, to the merry go round
G             D          C
and Emmie Lou got caught passing me a note
C                             D
Before the teacher took it, I read what she wrote: 
 
 
[Chorus]
 
        G               Em          C
"Do you love me, do you wanna be my friend?
            D
And if you do
          G                  Em             C
Well then don't be afraid to take me by the hand
        D
if you want to.
  C                      D
I think this is how love goes, check yes or no."
 
 
[Interlude]
 
G G  D D  C    (x2)
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
G             D              C
Now we're grown up and she's my wife
G             D           C
Still like two kids with stars in our eyes
G             D              C
Ain't much changed, I still chase Emmylou
C                                D
Up and down the hall, around the bed in our room
 
G             D              C
Last night I took her out in a white limousine
G             D            C
Twenty years together, she still gets to me
G             D              C
Can't believe it's been that long ago
C                         D
when we got started with just a little note
 
 
[Chorus]
 
        G                Em         C
"Do you love me, do you wanna be my friend?
            D
And if you do
          G                  Em             C
Well then don't be afraid to take me by the hand
        D
if you want to.
  C                      D
I think this is how love goes, check yes or no."
 
 
[Interlude]
 
G G  D D  C    (x2)
 
 
[Chorus]
 
         G              Em          C
"Do you love me, do you wanna be my friend?
            D
And if you do
          G                  Em             C
Well then don't be afraid to take me by the hand
        D
if you want to.
  C                      D
I think this is how love goes, check yes or no."
