Intro: D A D Verse: D God came down to Earth G D To enjoy what She'd created D Took a fishing trip to Georgia A To see what She could see D Cast out a holy line G D Thought She'd hooked a big one D G D Reeled in a oil barrel A D And said, "Oh my me!" Chorus: D G D This is why your whole world is on fire D A This is why you can't drink from your own springs D A D F#m G This is why, this is why, this is why, why, why D A D This is why y'all can't have nice things
