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