John Hiatt (born on August 20, 1952 in Indianapolis, Indiana, U.S.) is an American blues and rock guitarist, pianist, and singer-songwriter. He has been nominated for eleven Grammy Awards. Hiatt's sales have never quite matched his reputation. His songs have been covered by a wide variety of artists such as Bonnie Raitt, Ronnie Milsap, Willie Nelson, Iggy Pop, Three Dog Night, and The Neville Brothers, yet it took him thirteen years to reach the charts himself.

Artist : John Hiatt Song : Good as she could be Taken from : Walk on (1996) Written by : John Hiatt Chorded by : Wilbert Huigens Corrections : send to : [email protected]
[verse] DG Well she was a millionaire DA Before she was fourteen DG But there was an emptiness there DA That to practically everyone else could be seen DG She hit up on the drug of love DA Though there was no hole in her arm DG There was a hole some place else DA About as big as dady 10.000 acre farm
[chorus] GA Oh, she was dying for it DG For all the world to see GAD Ah, she was as good as she could be
[intro]
[verse] Well she had a baby at eighteen Never finished high school Her husband beat her for money and sex Till that cadillac finally ran out of fuel One disaster led to another Down to her and her baby son Born with a silver spoon in her mouth Headed south now Cause she was never born to run
[chorus]
[chorus] Yeah, she was crying for it Some credibility Ah, she was good as she could be
[verse] Well her momma died last year And her daddy he called her back home But when he opened the door He could not recognize This spectre of hair and bone But it was his own baby child Though she looked like an old woman now Well she lived ten lifetimes in five years Anywhere that the law would allow
[chorus]
[chorus] Yeah, she was crying for it Some credibility Ah, she was good as she could be
[chorus] Yeah, she was good as she could be Ah, she was good as she could be
