Emily sat right next to me
F
Five days a week in the same bus seat
Bb C
And for a girl, she was pretty cool
F
She wore an old ball cap, hated lace
F
Played a mean shortstop, and second base
Bb C
Never missed a day of Sunday school
Gm
And I never told a soul back then
Bb C
That Emily Harper was my best friend
F C Bb C
We carved our names on an old oak limb
F C Bb C
On the bank of the creek where we used to swim
F Bb C Bb Am Gm
A farmer&rsquo s son and a preacher&rsquo s only daughter
F C Bb C
We ran barefoot through the garden gate
F C Bb C
All afternoon we laughed and played
F Bb F C Bb C F C Bb
Til the sun went down on me, and Emily Harper
F
About the time I turned sixteen
F
I noticed Emily&rsquo s eyes were green
Bb C
And how they shined, when I made her laugh
F
I liked it when her hair was down
F
I hated other guys around
Bb C Bb F
I played it cool, but I had it bad
Gm
And oh, her daddy had a fit
Bb C
When he caught me stealing my first kiss
F C Bb C
We carved a heart on that old oak limb
F C Bb C
On the bank of the creek where we used to swim
F Bb C Bb Am Gm
A farmer&rsquo s son and a preacher&rsquo s only daughter
F C Bb C
We used to sneak off in my daddy&rsquo s car
F C Bb C
Sit on the hood and count the stars
F Bb F
Til the sun came up on me, and Emily Harper
Bb C Dm
It all seems just like yesterday
Gm Bb C
When we grew up, but some things never changed
F C Bb C
We still hold hands by that old oak limb
F C Bb C
On the bank of the creek where we used to swim
F Bb C Bb Am Gm
A farmer&rsquo s son and a preacher&rsquo s only daughter
F C Bb C
She sure did make a lovely bride
F C Bb C
We vowed to grow old side by side
F Bb F
Til the sun goes down on me, and Emily Harper

Me and Emily Harper
