To get William's sound, play a G with your pinky on the high E string.
When you are switching to the C, leave the high E string and move the rest
of your fingers to the C.
G - 320003
C - X30213
Intro chords:

I was just a young man, A little wet behind the ears
G C G C
She grew up at the country club with the diamond chandeliers
C G C G C
I worked at the feed store I was broke and naive
D C G
She was next in line for the crown to be the rose queen
I could get alcohol, she had a lot of cash
We'd watch the June bugs dance around while lying on the grass
I knew it wouldn't work out for a hayseed like me
But I couldn't resist to steal a kiss from the rose queen
Bridge:
D C
My momma always told me she was too rich for my blood
D C
Her daddy always said I was never good enough
D C Am
She was just a southern bell lord I made her ring
F C D
Soaking wet from beads of sweat busting at the seams
Solo
She went off to college I stayed my ass back home
She came back sororitized as a teenage debutant
Now she tries to act like she don't remember me
I guess I'm only good enough once I guess I'm only good enough once
For the rose queen for the rose queen
For the rose queen for the rose queen
