Capo 3 


D5                                   G5 
I had a puppy love crush When I was ten years old 
D5                                   G5 
Her name was Lisa Janine She lived across the road 
D5                                   G5 
I caught her with a Cub Scout In a little blue hat 
D5                                    G5 
They were pushing each other On the swing out back 
D5                        A5 
I remember how it almost killed me 
D5                        G5 
How could she do me like that 
D5                        A5 
I never thought I'd be the same 
D5                        G5 
But now I look back and I laugh 

(Chorus) 
D5            G5    D5 
If I can get over her  
D5         G5    D5 
I can get over you 
D5                G5         D5 
It's just gonna' take some time 
D5                 A5 
These things they always do 
D5                     G5          D5 
Even though she left scars on my heart 
G5                  D5 
Time has healed the wounds 
D5            G5     D5 
If I can get over her  
D5         A5    D5 
I can get over you 

I took my high school sweetheart to the senior prom 
She went off to college and I stayed on the farm 
I had a broken heart and some fences to mend 
I knew I'd never hold her again 
But I saw her today in the paper 
Smiling in her wedding dress 
I sent her a card and a blender 
And I wished her all the best 

(Chrous Twice) 



This is from the live acoustic version.  I'm not positive about the G chord, I  
know he plays something barred around that fret on the top strings. If it's  
wrong let me know. Enjoy
