G+G
I'm eight years old
Daddy's cuttin' my hair
Bm/F#
Aqua Velva on his hands
G+G
Momma's in the kitchen
Got fried green tomatoes
B minorBm
Poppin' in the pan
E minorEm F# minorF#m
I see a home run, a goal line
G+G F# minorF#m
Holding my friend gettin' baptized
E minorEm F# minorF#m
I see her beautiful face under that veil
A augmentedA
As she's walking down the aisle
Chorus:
G+G
I can hear the sirens comin'
A augmentedA
Smell the gasoline and smoke
G+G B minorBm
I'm pinned against this steering wheel
A augmentedA
Pretty sure my arm is broke
E minorEm B minorBm
I can see the flames and my life
D/F#D/F# G+G
Flashing right before my eyes
B minorBm A/C#A/C# D MajorD
I hope they get to me in time
G+G
I could see the headlights swerve
Bm/F#
So I cut the wheel to the right
G+G
Last thing I saw was that bottle turned up
B minorBm
As he crossed that center line
E minorEm F# minorF#m
I see tiny hands, brown eyes
G+G F# minorF#m
Fallin' to sleep to that lullaby
E minorEm F# minorF#m
And you slide over next to me
A augmentedA
As I turn out the lights
Chorus:
G+G
I can hear the sirens comin'
A augmentedA
Smell the gasoline and smoke
G+G B minorBm
I'm pinned against this steering wheel
A augmentedA
Pretty sure my arm is broke
E minorEm B minorBm
I can see the flames and my life
D/F#D/F# G+G
Flashing right before my eyes
B minorBm
I hope they get to me in time
A augmentedA
Please Lord, I'm beggin' you
G+G
Don't let me go like this
A augmentedA
There's so much left that I want to do
E minorEm F# minorF#m G+G D MajorD
So much I don't want to miss
