Suds In The Bucket Uke tab by Sara Evans

Intro - A#


(verse 1)
A#                        D#                        A#
She was in the backyard say it was a little past nine,
                       D#                    A#
When her prince pulled up, a white pickup truck,


(verse 2)
A#                        D#                        A#
Her folks should've seen it comming it was just a matter of time,
              D#                           A#
Pleanty old enough, when you can't stop love,


(verse 3)
A#                                    D#                 A#
She stuck a not on the screen door, sorry but I got to go,
                   D#                           A#
That was all she wrote, her momma's heart was broke,
                   D#                   A#
That was all she wrote, so the story goes,



(chorus)
         Gm
Now her daddy's in the kitchen, 
F                        D#                       A#
Starin out the window scratchin and rackin his brains,
            Gm               F            D#
How could eighteen years just up and walk away,
         Gm                      F
A# little pony tailed girl, growed up to be a woman 
           D#                         A#
Now she's gone in the a blink of an eye,
             A#
She left the suds in the bucket, 
          F                        A# - F - A#
And the clothes hangin out on the line,


(verse 4)
A#                                               D#                  A#
Now don't you wonder what the preachers gonna preach about Sunday mornin,
                  D#                          A#
Nothin quit like this, it's happened here before,


(verse 5)
         A#                         D#                    A#
Well he must've been a looker, a smooth talkin sun-of-a-gun,
                     D#                    A#
For such a grounded girl, to just up and run,
                       D#                        A#
Cause you can't fence time, and you can't stop love,


(chorus)
             Gm
Now all the bitty's in the beautyshop,
F                           D#                A#
Guess I'm going non-stop, sippin on pink lemonade,
            Gm               F            D#
How could eighteen years just up and walk away,
         Gm                      F
A# little pony tailed girl, growed up to be a woman 
           D#                         A#
Now she's gone in the a blink of an eye,
             A#
She left the suds in the bucket, 
          F                        A#
And the clothes hangin out on the line, ye-hoo


(lead chords - A# - D# - A# = 5x's)



(chorus)
               Gm
She's got her pretty little bare feet,
F                                 D#                   A#
Hangin out the window and their headed up to Vegas tonight,
            Gm               F            D#
How could eighteen years just up and walk away,
           Gm                      F
Our little pony tailed girl, growed up to be a woman 
           D#                         A#
Now she's gone in the a blink of an eye,
             A#
She left the suds in the bucket, 
          F                        A#
And the clothes hangin out on the line,



(ending verse)
A#                        D#                        A#
She was in the backyard say it was a little past nine,
                       D#                    A#
When her prince pulled up, a white pickup truck,
              D#                           A#
Pleanty old enough, when you can't stop love,
                    D#                        A#
No you can't fence time, and you can't stop love,
