YOUNG LOVE (Key of C)
Intro – C x 4 bars (16 counts)
1st verse
C
She was sitting cross-legged on a hood of a Ford
Filing down her nails with an emery board
G
Talking to her friends about people they knew
And all of the things that young girls do
C
When she said, "You see that guy in the baseball cap?
I'd like to spend some time with a boy like that."
G
Betty said, "I've seen him at the hardware store.
I think his name is Billy, but I'm not sure."
C
And as they talked a little while he passed by
She smiled at him he just said "Hi."
G
He was thinking to himself as he walked away
Man, I'd like to find a girl like her someday
[Chorus]
F C G C
Young love, strong love, true love, it's a new love
F C
They're gonna make it through the hard times, walk those lines
G C
Yeah, these ties will bind, young love
2nd verse
C
Well, she just couldn't stop herself from thinking 'bout him
And at a store downtown she saw him again
G
She had both hands full, he held open the door
He said, "My name is Billy. I've seen you before.
C
Can I help you with these? Can I give you a ride?
Can I take you out on a Saturday night?"
G
She didn't have to say what she was feeling inside
He could see the answer shining in her eyes
[Repeat Chorus]
3rd verse
C
Well, from that day on you couldn't keep them apart
They were side by side, heart to heart
G
Mama cried as Billy slipped the ring on her hand
And when the baby was born she was crying again
C
Well, he worked real hard and put some money down
On a little old house at the edge of town
G
And that night as he held her he couldn't believe
That God had made a girl that he'd never ever leave
[Repeat Chorus]
(Halle solo)
C
She was sitting cross-legged on the hood of a Ford
Filing down her nails with an emery board
End with same as intro, 4 bars of C, (16 counts)
