[Intro]
D, A, D MajorD
[Verse 1]
D MajorD
There's a Wedding in the chapel,
G+G
And the bride is oh so happy,
D MajorD A augmentedA
And Daddy's got a shotgun in his hand,
D MajorD
The groom is sweatin' bullets,
G+G
As the priest steps to the pulpit,
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
He's about to make this boy into a man.
[Chorus]
D MajorD
Sweet Jesus in the Garden,
G+G
Can you grant this boy a pardon,
D MajorD A augmentedA
For its true he really don't know what he's done,
D MajorD
Better lock the church door tight,
G+G
'Cause at the slightest crack of light,
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
That boy is gonna hit the ground and run,
A augmentedA D MajorD
He's gonna run he's gonna fly,
(D MajorD)
He's out the door and down the street,
E minorEm A augmentedA
And he won't say Goodbye,
D MajorD
the Diapers and the diatribes,
G+G D MajorD
Of her Daddy on the rum,
A augmentedA D MajorD
That boy is gonna hit the ground and run.
[Verse 2]
Was it the rubbing or the tugging,
Put a bun in Nancy's oven,
She's praying she's not starting to show,
But the wedding's set for April,
and she's known since November,
She ain't got hells chance of a ball of snow.
[Chorus]
[Instrumental]
A, D MajorD
D, Em, A augmentedA
D, G, D MajorD
D, A, D MajorD
[Verse 3]
What in the Lords name was he thinking,
You can't blame this all on drinking,
You can count the family teeth upon one hand,
By Midnight he was muddled,
And her gene pool is a puddle,
That boy might be the Daddy of his old man.
[Chorus]
That boy is gonna hit the ground and run,
