Tabbed by: Emrldeyzs [Intro] D A D G D A D
D                      A
I was fifteen, she was eighteen,

D                       G            D
The prettiest thing I'd ever seen in my life.

                         A
An' I loved her at first sight.

        D          A       D             G
I found her in Marietta, a town north of Atlanta.

              D              A
I brought her home to see my folks,

               D
They loved her too.
[Verse 2]
D                      A
We were together for a long time,

           D            G
Thought it would be for all time.

           D                                 A
But things change and re-arrange, she had to go.

            D           G             D            G
She left me cryin' in '79, an airline pilot in Caroline.

        D                    A
I was a wreck, can't drive a check:

            D
It broke my heart.
[Chorus]
D         G                 A
 My first love was an older woman.

G
There's been many since,

             A
But there'll never be another.

         D              G              D          G
Built in nineteen fifty-five, snowshoe white, overdrive,

                  D                     A
I should've never sold her, I'll always love her,

        D
She was mine.
[Solo] [Verse 3]
D                        A
Years went by, teardrops dried;

          D           G
I got her back, I was surprised.

    D                            A
In '93, a gift to me on Christmas Eve.

D                          G             
We were both older, so I restored her.

D                      G 
Could've sold her, for alot more.

D                              A
But I will never, she's mine forever,

        D
Until I go.
[Chorus]
         G                 A
My first love was an older woman.

G
There's been many since,

             A
But there'll never be another.

         D              G              D          G
Built in nineteen fifty-five, snowshoe white, overdrive,

                  D                     A
I should've never sold her, I'll always love her,

        D
She was mine.

G          D                       A
I'll never sell her, she's mine forever,

           D
I love her so.
