 D      A     G   
When I was a boy  

D            A  	          G              D     A 
Four houses down from me, Was a family with an only child  
D  	      A            G                           D       A 
She was the only girl, In this whole world that could make me smile  


Chorus 
G          A    G 
Down the road  
G           A             G 
I made up reasons to go  
G          A     D* 
Down the road  


D           A                     G                     D     A 
Somewhere inside of me, there was something she took a liking to   
D  	            A         G                   D      A 
And I asked her to marry me, She said she really wanted to
