George Strait - Fifteen Years Going Up Chords

[Intro]
G Em   G Em   D   G  F* C*
 
[Verse 1]
G
Fifteen years together
   C                   G
We climbed by work and will
                       Em
From a simple two room cottage
     A7             D7
To a mansion on the hill
            G
Now there's roses in the garden
             C                G
But it's the coldest place in town
        Em                   G
It took fifteen years, going up
    D                G   F* C*
And one night coming down
 
[Chorus]
G       C        G
Fifteen years of heaven
    C                  G
For one short night of sin
          C        G
From blue skies forever
      D    D7
To an end
     G   C    G
From out on a mountain
        C            G
To both knees on the ground
Em      G      Em    G
Fifteen years, going up
    D                G
And one night coming down
 
[Solo]
  Em  |  G  Em  |  D  | G  F* C* |
 
[Verse 2]
    G
Her dreams have all been shattered
    C              G
Her faith in me  is gone
                      Em
My tears tell her I'm sorry
    A                   D
But they can't write my wrong
    G
One night wrote my story
      C               G
How a man can lose it all
      Em      G     Em    G
After fifteen years going up
     D              G    F* C*
It's hard to take a fall
 
[Chorus]
G       C        G
Fifteen years of heaven
    C                  G
For one short night of sin
          C        G
From blue skies forever
      D    D7
To an end
     G   C    G
From out on a mountain
        C            G
To both knees on the ground
Em      G      Em    G
Fifteen years, going up
    D                G
And one night coming down
 
[Outro]
F          G       Em    G     Em
I've been, fifteen years going up
    D                G    F* C*  F* C* G
And one night coming down
