[Intro]
D G A x2
[Verse]
D G A
Never knew my old man's truck could even run like that
D G A
Should've known better than to take that curve so fast
D G
Daddy pulled up, I was down in a ditch
A
And he asked me why I did what I did
[Chorus]
D G
There was this girl, drink in her hand
A
Shootin' me a "let's get into trouble" grin
D G
I ain't never seen somethin' so fine
A
And I was doin' anything to make her mine
G A
I was out of my mind, she was out of this world
D G A
There was this girl
[Verse]
D G A
Some folks ask me why I still pick this guitar
D G A
They say livin' that life on the road won't get you very far
D G
I say man you should've been down in Tupelo
A
Seen what was in the front row
[Chorus]
D G
There was this girl, beer in her hand
A
Shootin' me a "play a little Skynyrd" grin
D G
She's turnin' it up, she's turnin' me on
A
And I'd play her anything she'd sing along
G A
I was out of my mind, she was out of this world
Bm G A
There was this girl
Bm G A
Yeah there was this girl
[Verse]
D G A
Didn't know a diamond ring could cost so much (damn)
D G A
Took six months on a farm 'fore I saved up
D G
All my drinkin' buddies still out on the town
A
Wonderin' why I ever settled down
[Chorus]
D G
But there was this girl, holdin' my hand
A
Shootin' me a "start a life together" grin
D G
She's pullin' me in, she's straightenin' me out
A
And now I know what love is all about
G A
I'm still out of my mind, she's still out of this world
Bm
There was this girl
[Outro]
A D G A
Yeah, there was this girl
D G A
Yeah, there was this girl
D G A
There was this girl
