This is probably more for the lyrics than the music because the music is
your text book, three chord song. There is a picking pattern through the
verses, but listen to the song, it's pretty obvious. And if you can't
pick... strum the whole damn thing... it won't matter.
Young Love
by the Judds
(Lead in with C, 4/4 time, moderate country strum)
C
She was sitting cross leg-ged on the hood of a Ford
Filing down her nails with an emery board
G
Talking with 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
You know I'd like to spend sometime with a boy like that."
G
Betty said, "I see him at the hardware store.
I think his name is Billy, but I'm not sure."
C
Well they talked a little while and he passed by,
She smiled at him, he just said hi.
G
He was thinking to himself as he walked away
You know I'd like to find a girl like her someday.
Strum F C G C
Chorus: Young love, strong love, true love, it's a new love
F
They're gonna make it through the hard times
C G C
Walk those lines, yeah these ties'll bind... young love
C
Well she just couldn't stop herself from thinking 'bout him,
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 Saturday night."
G
She didn't have to say what she was feeling inside,
He could see the answer shining in her eyes
Chorus
C
>From that day on, you couldn't keep them apart
They were side by side, and heart to heart
G
Momma cried as Billy slipped a ring on her hand,
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 end of town
G
That night as he held her he couldn't believe
That God had made a girl that he'd never ever leave
Chorus
Repeat first two lines of first verse and fade...
Just in case...
