[Intro 1]
[G][D]
[G][F]

[Verse 1]
My [G]baby came and got
me in her Mama's Cadillac
We went parkin' by the river
near the [F]honeydew [G]patch
She started talkin' 'bout
the birds and the bees
My mind ran wild with [F]the possibil[G]ities[C]
Like Rhett and Scarlett
climbin' up the stairs
We were on our way to heaven
in the melons out there

[Verse 2]
She was [D]the centerfold picture in
a country boy's dream
[C]Prettiest thing I ever had seen
[D]Tupelo honey in a pair of blue jeans
[F]The upper Mississippi Delta
Cotton County Queen
[G]

[Verse 3]
[F]
She [C]had a [G]judge for a Daddy,
he made her tow the line
Brother [Gm]he was t[G]ougher
than [F]a year of hard [G]time
He came by and caught us
rollin' in the weeds
Said "Boy get goin' if you're
[F]ever gonna [G]leave"[C]
I took off runnin' out of that place
All the while thinkin' 'bout
her beautiful face

[Verse 4]
She was [D]the centerfold picture in
a country boy's dream
[C]Prettiest thing I ever had seen
[D]Tupelo honey in a pair of blue jeans
The [F]upper Mississippi Delta Cotton
County [G]Queen

[Interlude 1]

[F]
[C]Snuck [G]up to the

[Verse 5]
house in
the heat of the night
Hid in the hedge 'til they
[F]turned out the [G]lights
Tapped on the windows said
"Darlin' let's [C]go"
And we were gone with
the wind in her [F]El Dor[G]ado

[Verse 6]
[G]
She was [D]the centerfold picture in
a country boy's dream
[C]Prettiest thing I ever had seen
[D]Tupelo honey in a pair of blue jeans
The [F]upper Mississippi Delta
Cotton County [G]Queen
