[Verse 1]
A D
She was fifteen, quiet and lean
A D
Digging the music, making the scene
A
People would stare at her long golden hair
D A
My baby's in black was the colour she'd wear
[Chorus]
Bm Em
When I first saw her, my heart did flips
Bm E
Feel our first kiss still burning my lips
D A D
Holding her near, year after year, my Southside girl
[Verse 2]
D
She was so fine that after a time
D
I found myself hoping she would be mine
D
She spotted my plan, did not understand
A
She thought I was crazy holding her hand
[Chorus]
Bm
When I first saw her, my heart did flips
E
Feel our first kiss still burning my lips
D A D
Holding her near, year after year, my Southside girl
[Verse 3]
G D G
I called upon her mother, she told me "There's another"
A
"Why don't you just quit and go home?"
G
I thought for just a minute, I knew that I was in it
A
I said "I'll never go home alone"
