Version 1 Version 2[Verse 1] G C G she was in the backyard, say it was a little past nine G C when her prince pulled up G a white pickup truck her folks should have seen it comin' C G it was only just a matter of time C plenty old enough G and you can't stop love C G she stuck a note on the screen door, "sorry but I got to go" C G and that was all she wrote, her mama's heart was broke C G and that was all she wrote and so the story goes [Pre-chorus] Em D now her daddy's in the kitchen starin' out the window C G a scratchin' and a rackin' his brains [Chorus] Em D C how could eighteen years just up and walk away Em D our little ponytailed girl grown up to be a woman C G now she's gone in a blink of an eye D G she left the suds in the bucket and the clothes hangin' out on the line [Verse 2] G C G now don't you wonder what the preacher's gonna preach about Sunday morn C G nothin' quite like this has happened here before C G well, he must have been a looker, a smooth talkin' son of a gun C G for such a grounded girl to just up and run C G cause you can't fence time and you can't stop love [Pre-chorus] Em D Now all the biddy's in the beauty shop, gossip goin' nonstop C G sippin' on pink lemonade [Chorus] Em D C how could eighteen years just up and walk away Em D Our little pony-tailed girl grown up to be a woman C G Now she's gone in a blink of an eye G She left the suds in the bucket D G And the clothes hangin' out on the line [Pre-chorus] Em D She's got her pretty little bare feet hangin' out the window C G And they're headin' up to Vegas tonight [Chorus] Em D C How could 18 years just up and walk away Em D Our little pony-tailed girl grown up to be a woman C G Now she's gone in a blink of an eye G She left the suds in the bucket D G And the clothes hangin' out on the line
