Suds In The Bucket - Sara Evans
[Intro]
[C]
Verse 1:
[C]She was in the backyard [F]say it was a little past [C]nine,
When her prince pulled [F]up, a [G]white pickup [C]truck.
[C]Her folks should've seen it coming it was [F]only just a matter of [C]time.
Plenty old e-[F]nough, [G]and you can't stop [C]love.
[C]She stuck a note on the screen door, [F]sorry but I got to [C]go,
And that was all she [F]wrote, [G]her momma's heart was [C]broke,
And that was all she [F]wrote, [G]so the story [C]goes...
|[Chorus]
|Now her d[Am]addy's in the kitchen,
|[G]Starin' out the window, [F]scratchin' and rackin' his [C]brains
|"How could [Am]eighteen years just[G] up and walk a[F]-way?"
|Our little [Am]pony-tailed girl, growed[G] up to be a woman,
|Now she's [F]gone in the blink of an [C]eye.
|She left the [C]suds in the bucket,
|And the [G]clothes hangin out on the [C]line[G],[C]
Verse 2:
[C]Now don't you wonder what the preacher's gonna [F]preach about Sunday [C]morn?,
Nothin' quite like [F]this, [G]has happened here be-[C]fore.
Well he must've been a looker, a [F]smooth-talkin' son-of-a-[C]gun,
For such a grounded g[F]irl, [G]to just up and [C]run.
'Course you can't fence [F]time, [G]and you can't stop [C]love.
[Chorus]
Now all the [Am]bitties in the beauty shop,
[G]Gossip going non-stop, [F]sippin' on pink lemon-[C]ade
"How could [Am]eighteen years just[G] up and walk a[F]-way?"
Our little [Am]pony-tailed girl, growed[G] up to be a woman,
Now she's [F]gone in the blink of an [C]eye.
She left the [C]suds in the bucket,
And the [G]clothes hangin' out on the [C]line, ye-hoo!

|She's got her [Am]pretty little bare feet,
|[G]Hangin' out the window and their [F]headed up to Vegas to-[C]night
|"How could [Am]eighteen years just[G] up and walk a[F]-way?"
|Our little [Am]pony-tailed girl, growed[G] up to be a woman,
|Now she's [F]gone in the blink of an ey[C]e.
|She left the [C]suds in the bucket,
|And the [G]clothes hangin' out on the [C]line.
