Sixteen Summers, Fifteen Falls
Intro - Dbm B Dbm B Dbm Abm Dbm Abm
Dbm B
Let me tell you a story 'bout a girl I knew
Dbm B
Fairest skin with eyes of blue
Dbm B
I swear to the Lord that I loved her true
Db Ab Db Abm Dbm Abm
It's a year now she's been gone
Dbm B
Well her spirit was as bright as the soft sunshine
Dbm B
Lips, the colour strawberry wine
Dbm B
I wish to God, she still was mine
Db Ab Db Abm Dbm Abm
The chance won't come again
Dbm B
After first, we lay in love's sweet bed
Dbm B
With one look at her eyes, I might have read
Dbm B
All the pain that was flying through her head
Db Ab Db Abm Dbm Abm
Through my guilt I could not see
Dbm B
Oh I turned to her when the morning came
Dbm B
Hungry thoughts racing through my brain
Dbm B
But the knife in her heart screamed herself she'd slain
Db Ab Db Abm Dbm Abm
And a note whispered love too soon
Dbm B
Her old man screamed and her mother cried
Dbm B
All I could do was to wonder why
Dbm B
A girl in her youth was forced to die
Db Ab Db Abm Dbm Abm
Is loving such a crime?
Dbm B
She died Few in years with breasts still small
Dbm B
Seeing sixteen summers and fifteen falls
Dbm B
Me and my blindness never realized all
Db Ab Db Abm Dbm Abm
The fear she kept inside
Dbm B
Let me tell you a story 'bout a girl I knew
Dbm B
Fairest skin with eyes of blue
Dbm B (fade)
I swear to the Lord that I loved her true
