Check Yes Or No - George Strait

[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                     G
A  pink dress, a  matching bow and her  pony tail
                                     A
She kissed me on the school bus, but  told me not to tell
 
 
[Verse 2]
D                  A                   G
 Next day I chased  her 'round the playground
D              A                G
 Across the monkey bars, to the  merrygoround
D            A           G
 And Emmylou  got caught  passing me a note
                              A
Before the teacher took it, I  read what she wrote
 
 
|[Chorus]
|        D                Bm                   
|"Do you  love me, do you  wanna be my friend? [G]
|           A
|And if you  do
|          D                   Bm                  
|Well then  don't be afraid to  take me by the hand [G]
|            A
|If you want  to
|  G                             A                
|I  think this is how love goes,  check yes or no" [D] [A] [G]

[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                    A        G
 Ain't much changed,  I still  chase Emmylou
                                     A
Up and down the hall, around the bed  in our room
 
 
[Verse 4]
D             A                  G
 Last night I  took her out in a  white limousine
D               A                 G
 Twenty years together, 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                Bm                   
|"Do you  love me, do you  wanna be my friend? [G]
|           A
|And if you  do
|          D                   Bm                  
|Well then  don't be afraid to  take me by the hand [G]
|            A
|If you want  to
|  G                             A                
|I  think this is how love goes,  check yes or no" [D] [A] [G]
|[D] [A] [G]
|        D                Bm                   
|"Do you  love me, do you  wanna be my friend? [G]
|           A
|And if you  do
|          D                   Bm                  
|Well then  don't be afraid to  take me by the hand [G]
|            A
|If you want  to
|  G                             A                
|I  think this is how love goes,  check yes or no" [D] [A] [G]
