Check Yes Or No

[Intro]
D A G D A G

[Verse 1]
D           A                G
 It started way back in third grade
D             A       G
 I used to sit beside Emmylou Hayes
  D
A pink dress,
  A                    G
a matching bow and her pony tail
She kissed me on the school bus,
    A
but told me not to tell

[Verse 2]
D                 A                   G
 Next day I chased her 'round the playground
D              A
 Across the monkey bars,
       G
to the merrygoround
D           A           G
 And Emmylou got caught passing me a note
Before the teacher took it,
  A
I read what she wrote

[Chorus]
        D
"Do you love me,
       Bm                 G
do you wanna be my friend?
           A
And if you do
          D                  Bm                 G
Well then don't be afraid to take me by the hand
           A
If you want to
  G
I think this is how love goes,
A                D A G
 check yes or no"

[Verse 3]
D          A                 G
 Now we're grown up and she's my wife
D              A              G
Still like two kids with stars in our eyes
D
 Ain't much changed,
A        G
 I still chase Emmylou
Up and down the hall,
              A
around the bed in our room

[Verse 4]
D             A                 G
 Last night I took her out in a white limousine
D               A
 Twenty years together,
         G
she still gets to me
D             A               G
 Can't believe it's been that long ago
                         A
When we got started with just a little note

[Chorus]
        D
"Do you love me,
       Bm                 G
do you wanna be my friend?
           A
And if you do
          D                  Bm                 G
Well then don't be afraid to take me by the hand
           A
If you want to
  G
I think this is how love goes,
A                D A G
 check yes or no"
D A G        D
     "Do you love me,
       Bm                 G
do you wanna be my friend?
           A
And if you do
          D                  Bm                 G
Well then don't be afraid to take me by the hand
           A
If you want to
  G
I think this is how love goes,
A                D A G
 check yes or no"
