D                                     G                                            D
22 years young I was dumb I was numb but I smiled
D                                              G                                                           D
Holding on to my daddy's arm when I walked down that aisle
Hm                                                          D/A                                                       G
Said a vow and then I bowed my head and now I'm praying God how
D                                              G                                          D
How do I move on from a decade of love upside down

34 years old, I was cold and alone but I smiled
D                                              G                                             D
Holding on to my mother's prayers as I traveled for miles
Hm                                              D/A                                       G
Met a man in Lonestar and my heart said this is your fate
D                                                  G                                       D
Said he almost gave up but true love is never too late

Chorus:
    G                               A
It's not my first marry me
          Hm                                   A/C# D
No, it's not my first diamond ring
     G                                  A                    D
But this one I'm gonna do differently
    G                                 A
It's not my first dress in white
             Hm                A/C#       D     D/F#
And it's not my first wedding night
      G                       A                               D
But baby, I'll get it right the second time

Made a move I left all I knew in Nashville, Tennessee
D                                        G                                      D
You were in that uhaul I followed in my Cherokee
Hm                                                  D/A                                                G
Said a vow, I said em loud, without a doubt with you I was found

You're the best decision that I made right there in that courthouse

And it's not my first wedding night

Bluebonnet springs and our morning walks all over town
