[Intro] A [Verse 1]
A                       D                        A
She was in the backyard say it was a little past nine,

                       D     E            A
When her prince pulled up, a white pickup truck.

A                                         D                     A
Her folks should've seen it coming it was only just a matter of time.
[Refrain]
             D      E                  A
Plenty old e-nough, and you can't stop love.
[Verse 2]
A                                    D                  A
She stuck a note on the screen door, sorry but I got to go,

                     D      E                     A
And that was all she wrote, her momma's heart was broke,
[Refrain]
                     D      E            A
And that was all she wrote, so the story goes...
[Chorus]
         F#m
Now her daddy's in the kitchen,

E                       D                          A
Starin' out the window, scratchin' and rackin' his brains:

           F#m                 E             D
"How could eighteen years just up and walk a-way?"

           F#m                      E
Our little pony-tailed girl, growed up to be a woman,

          D                       A
Now she's gone in the blink of an eye.

             A
She left the suds in the bucket,

        E                         A - E - A
And the clothes hangin out on the line,
[Verse 3]
A                                              D                   A
Now don't you wonder what the preacher's gonna preach about Sunday morn?,

                   D     E                    A
Nothin' quite like this, has happened here be-fore.

                                 D                       A
Well he must've been a looker, a smooth-talkin' son-of-a-gun,

                     D    E              A
For such a grounded girl, to just up and run.
[Refrain]
                        D     E                  A
'Course you can't fence time, and you can't stop love.
[Chorus]
            F#m
Now all the bitties in the beauty shop,

E                      D                     A
Gossip going non-stop, sippin' on pink lemon-ade:

           F#m                 E             D
"How could eighteen years just up and walk a-way?"

           F#m                      E
Our little pony-tailed girl, growed up to be a woman,

          D                       A
Now she's gone in the blink of an eye.

             A
She left the suds in the bucket,

        E                          A
And the clothes hangin' out on the line, ye-hoo!
[Interlude] A D A A D D A A A D A A D D A A D D A A [Chorus]
              F#m
She's got her pretty little bare feet,

E                                D                     A
Hangin' out the window and their headed up to Vegas to-night:

           F#m                 E             D
"How could eighteen years just up and walk a-way?"

           F#m                      E
Our little pony-tailed girl, growed up to be a woman,

          D                         A
Now she's gone in the blink of an eye.

             A
She left the suds in the bucket,

        E                          A
And the clothes hangin' out on the line.
[Refrain]
             A
She left the suds in the bucket,

        E                          A
And the clothes hangin' out on the line,
[Outro]
A                       D                        A
She was in the backyard say it was a little past nine,

                       D     E            A
When her prince pulled up, a white pickup truck,

             D      E                  A
Plenty old e-nough, and you can't stop love,

                   D     E                  A
No you can't fence time, and you can't stop looooove!
