She Loved A Lot In Her Time
By George Jones
Capo 3 (Key Of F)
[D]I started drinking [G]and acting crazy way back in sixty-[D]five
[D]Mama would pray and [Bm]say he's my baby, [G]Lord please keep him a[A]live
[D]Sister came home with [G]two little children, her man had left her a[D]lone
[D]Mama knew too well the [Bm]hurt she was feelin' Cause [G]Daddy had been [A]gone so [D]long
We [Em]all did our part to [D]add to her pain
We [G]all broke her [G/F#]heart but she never com[A]plained
Chorus:
[D]She loved a lot in her [G]time
[D]She's watched love [Bm]grow and [G]die on the [A]vine
She [D]stood in the shadows so others could [G]shine
[D]She loved a [A]lot in her [D]time
[D]Mama's prayers were answered a [G]long time ago, I ain't touched a drink in ten [D]years
[D]Sister remarried to a [Bm]good ole boy, [G]they don't live [A]far from [D]here
[Em]Mama's work is done, [D]now she's gone on home
[G]The words in our [G/F#]hearts are en[A]graved on her stone
Chorus
[Add]She stood in the shadows so others could shine
She loved a lot in her time
Mo-om you loved a lot in your time
