[Verse 1]
Em G C G
Her mother came and packed her bags and drove her off to nowhere
In the shadows of her second father's shoulders she just stood there
Em D C
Crying
Em D G
She's crying
Em G C G
Then the wicked lies rolled off her tongue like war-bound soldiers marching
Em G C G
And she ran from the truth like wounded men run from the darkness
Em D C
When they're dying
Em D G
She's dying
[Chorus]
C
And I told her I loved her
G Em
And she told me she's leaving
C G Em
Just like every other person in my life that I've believed in
C
And as she slammed the door and walked away
G
I turned on my radio
C
Ooooh no
D
And I played her a dancing song
G
And got her home
[Verse 2]
Em G C G
And I had more faith in her than her mother had in Jesus
Em G C G
But like Judas she rebuked my name for jewels and silver pieces
Em D C
A wedding ring
Em D G
A wedding ring
Em G C G
And in my darkest hour her eyes filled with desperation
Em G C G
Her words were sharp and her sword was swift, Lord I have been forsaken
Em D C
By my one true love
Em D G
My one true love
[Chorus]
C
And I told her I loved her
G Em
And she told me she's leaving
C G Em
Just like every other person in my life that I've believed in
C
And as she slammed the door and walked away
G
I turned on my radio
C
Ooooh no
D
And I played her a dancing song
G
And got her home
[Verse 3]
Em G C G
As I lie alone tonight in the bed we built and once shared
Em G C G
I wonder where you are, who you're with, do you think that he cares
Em D C
About you
Em D G
About you
Em G C G
Now I am not a godly man, my road's twisted and sinful
Em G C G
But to have you back, I'd bow my head and sing a Southern Baptist hymnal
Em D C
Hallelujah
Em D C
Hallelujah
Em D C G
Hallelujah
Em D G
Hallelujah
