Don't Take The Girl by Tim Mcgraw
Don't Take The Girl
G
Johnny's daddy was taking him fishing,
G
when he was 8 years old
G
A little girl came through the front gate
G
holding a fishing pole
Bm7 C
His dad looked down and smiled
Bm7 C
Said we can't leave her behind
Am7 G
Son I know you don't want her to go
C D
But someday you'll change your mind
G
And Johnny said
G
Take Jimmy Johnson
G
Take Tommy Thompson
G
Take my best friend Bo
G
Take anybody that you want as
G
Long as she don't go
G Am7
Take any boy in the world
C D
Daddy please
G
Don't take the girl
G
Same ol' boy
G
Same sweet girl
G
Ten years down the road
G
He held her tight and kissed her lips in
G
Front of the picture show
Bm7 C
A stranger came and pulled a gun
Bm7 C
Grabbed her by the arm
Am7 G
Said If you do what I tell you to there
C D
Won't be any harm
G
And Johnny said
G
Take my money
G
Take my wallet
G
Take my credit cards
G
Here's the watch that my grandpa gave me
G
Here's the key to my car
G Am7
Mr. give it a whirl
C D
But please
G
Don't take the girl
G
Same ol' boy
G
Same sweet girl
G
Five years down the road
G
There's gonna be a little one and she
G
Says it's time to go
Bm7 C
Doctor said the baby's fine
Bm7 C
But you'll have to leave
Am7 C
Cause his mama's fadin' fast and
C D
Johhny hit his knees
And then he prayed
G
Take the very breath you gave me
G
Take the heart from my chest
G
I'll gladly take her place if you'll have me
G
Make this my last request
G Am7
Take me out of this world
C D
God please
G
Don't take the girl
