Capo 5 (chords relative to capo)
Intro: Dsus D D Dsus x4
Verse 1:
[Dsus]Well the [D]first time, that I [Dsus]ever [D]saw her
[Dsus]I picked her [A]up, in my Chevy Malibu.
[Dsus]Goin' to the [D]grocery, [Dsus]for her [D]mother
[Dsus]For a loaf of [A]bread, and a Pepsi Cola [D]too.[D-Dsus-D]
Verse 2:
Well she got in, and she rolled down the window
I said man turn it up! I love that country tune.
She was wearin' the finest, rabbit skin halter
I was overcome, by the smell of her perfume.
Chorus:
[D]But then I [G]saw her, standing at the [D]alter
mmm [A]hmm, Of everlasting [D]life.
[D]Standin' [G]there, with a boy named [D]Walter
He was [A]expecting her to be his [A]wife.
Little did [G]I, know my heart w[D]as breakin'
And I [A]could not, say a [D]thing.
Then the [G]preacher, posed the final [D]question
A N/C Dsus->(D G D A D) x4
Then I heard, those church bells ring.
Instrumental/Solo (over chorus)
Verse 3:
Well she was young, and so kind-hearted
That she wrecked my world, and she left me with the blues.
She called me sugar, and I knew that when we parted
I knew just what I was gonna do.
Chorus
Instrumental/Solo (over chorus)
Bridge:
[Am]Well I [Bbm]got my [Bm]nerve up, I [Bbm]beat a path to her [Am]momma's[G]
[G]Slingin' gravel in my Chevy [A]Malibu.
[Bm]When I pulled up to the drivewa[Bbm]y, the next [Am]thing that I kne[G]w[G]
G G A Dsus->(D G D A D)
There was a string of soup cans tied to Walter's B...M...W!
