[Intro] C Dm C F G C F C C Dm C F G C F C [Verse]
                             Dm  G                     C   F C
The attic's filled with records  unheard of for many years

                          Dm    G                     C
When the radio plays old songs  she has no time for tears

                           Am  G         Am          F
She skipped the class reunion  for the homecoming queen

                            C           G                     F   C
And she knows you can't go back, friends, to sweet little sixteen.
[Chorus]
           F       G7     Am
And the Queen of 1959 is happy trying to be

F            G7              Am              F
A dedicated lady, she's got love for her family

         Am                F
And she sure looks good to me

          G
She's my everything, she treats me like a king

           C
She's a lady.
[Instrumental] F G7 C F G7 C [Verse]
                   Dm   G                                C  F C
My favorite cheer leader  finds her hair streaked with grey.

                     Dm   G                     C
Instead of drive-in movies  she'd rather see a play.

                   Am  G                   F
I know that her initials are carved in a desk somewhere

                                 C      G                             F   C
And like rock and roll heroes, ponytails  have been combed from her hair.
[Chorus]
           F       G7     Am
And the Queen of 1959 is happy trying to be

F            G7           Am                  F
A dedicated mother and a wife and a friend to me

         Am                F
And she sure looks good to me

          G
She's my everything, she treats me like a king

         C
She's a lady.
