[Verse 1]
D#
It was a cotton dress she was wearin’ fallin’ off her shoulders
G# D#
She was bearin’ her heart to a boy on the banks of the Rio Grande
D#
She said I’ve loved you since the second grade,
G# A#
And to tell the truth I’m tired of waitin’ around for you boy you better make your stand
[Chorus]
G#
Next thing you know he was poppin’ the question,
D# G# D#
And all it took was a little suggestion from a pretty girl on the river on a moonlit night
G# D# G#
It didn’t matter how young they were, ‘cuz she loved him, he loved her
A# G# A# (end)
And that’s enough to make everything alright, some things are meant to be I guess
D#
And it all started with a cotton dress
[Verse 2]
D#
They got married at the church of Christ, standin’ on the corner of 12th
G# D#
And rice flew all around them as they took off in the car
D#
Bought a little house with a big lifeboat,
They were sittin’ on the porch when her water broke
G# A#
And she said you better get me down to the E.R.
[Chorus 2]
G#
Next thing you know they were holdin’ a girl
D#
With her Mama’s eyes and her Daddy’s curls
G# D#
Singin’ lullabies in the middle of a moonlit night
G# D# G#
It didn’t matter how young they were, ‘cuz she loved them, they loved her
G# A#
And that was enough to make everything alright
G# A# (end) D#
The rest is history I guess, and it all started with a cotton dress
[Bridge]
G# A# D# G# A# D#
Ooh ooh ooh ooh the years went by and by and then
G# A# D# G#
Ooh ooh next thing you know that old that old circle’s comin’ around
A#
Comin’ around again
[Verse 3]
D#
It was a cotton dress she was wearin’ fallin’ off her shoulders
G# D#
She was bearin’ her heart to a boy on the banks of the Rio Grande
D#
She said my parents sat in this same place
And I bet you got the same look on your face
G# A#
That my Daddy did when he asked for Mama’s hand
G# D#
And can I make a little suggestion before you think about poppin’ the question
G# A# D#
Be sure about what you’re feelin’ here tonight, ‘cuz I see life from every angle
G# A# G# A#
The twists and turns and every tangle, and I know true love makes everything alright
G# A# G# A# (end)
So I won’t settle for nothing less, and if you feel the same I guess
D# (4 bars of D# strum)
You can have the girl in the cotton dress
