C  C  Bb7  Am7

[Verse]
       C
I got turned around in
some little town
     Bb              Am
I'd never been to before
        C
Working my way through
a middle-of-June
 Bb              Am7
Midnight thunderstorm
           C
There was something
in the headlights
    Bb              Am
It stopped me on a dime
               C
Well, she was scared to death,
so I said
      Bb               Am
Climb in and then she climbed
      C          Bb Am
Ohh, ohh ohh yeah

[Verse]
               C
Well, she was bruised and
broke from head to toe
        Bb
With a tear in
                   Am
her blood-stained shirt
            C
She didn't tell the whole
truth but she didn't have to
   Bb                       Am7
I knew what had happened to her
          C
I didn't load her down
with questions
      Bb                     Am
That girl had been through enough
        C
I just threw it in drive,
looked in those eyes
       Bb                Am7
And I asked her where he was

[Chorus]
         C
I don't know if he's an angel
        Bb                      F
'Cause angels don't do what he did
            C
He was hellbent to find
the man behind
         Bb              F
All the whiskey scars I hid

         C
I never thought my day of justice
                   Bb            F
Would come from a judge under a seat
       C
But I knew right then
                    Bb
I'd never get hit again
                F
When he said to me
             C
Wait in the truck
                  Bb  F
Just wait in the truck

[Verse]
        C
Well I knocked and knocked
and no one came
      Bb                        Am
So I kicked in his double-wide door
           C
I let the hammer drop before he got
         Bb                    Am7
To that twelve he was reaching for
          C
I didn't try to hide my pistol
          Bb         Am7
I didn't even try to run
                   C
I just sat on the porch,
smoking one of his cigarettes
           Bb              Am7
And waited for the cops to come

[Bridge]
           C
It's been sixty months
and she still comes
   Bb                   F
To see me from time to time
        C
It was worth the price,
to see a brighter side
        Bb
Of the girl I picked
         Am
up that night
       C
And I might be here forever
          Bb              C
It ain't paradise that's true
            C
But it's a whole hell
of a lot better
          Bb              F
Than the place I sent him to,
yeah
