Verse 1:
E minorEm G+G C majorC G+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
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC
Crying
E minorEm D MajorD G+G
She's crying
E minorEm G+G C majorC G+G
Then the wicked lies rolled off her tongue like war-bound soldiers marching

When they're dying
E minorEm D MajorD G+G
She's dying

And I told her I loved her
G+G E minorEm
And she told me she's leaving
C majorC G+G E minorEm
Just like every other person in my life that I've believed in

And I played her a dancing song
G+G
And got her home

And I had more faith in her than her mother had in Jesus

But like Judas she rebuked my name for jewels and silver pieces
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC
A augmentedA wedding ring
E minorEm D MajorD G+G
A augmentedA wedding ring
E minorEm G+G C majorC G+G
And in my darkest hour her eyes filled with desperation
E minorEm G+G C majorC G+G
Her words were sharp and her sword was swift, Lord I have been forsaken
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC
By my one true love
E minorEm D MajorD G+G
My one true love
Chorus:

And as she slammed the door and walked away

I turned on my radio
C majorC
Ooooh no

And I played her a dancing song

And got her home

E minorEm G+G C majorC G+G
As I lie alone tonight in the bed we built and once shared
E minorEm G+G C majorC G+G
I wonder where you are, who you're with, do you think that he cares
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC
About you
E minorEm D MajorD G+G
About you
E minorEm G+G C majorC G+G
Now I am not a godly man, my road's twisted and sinful
E minorEm G+G C majorC G+G
But to have you back, I'd bow my head and sing a Southern Baptist hymnal
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC
Hallelujah
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC
Hallelujah
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC G+G
Hallelujah
E minorEm D MajorD G+G
