Strawberry Queen

D A G D G D G D A D


[Verse 1]
D                                                   A
I never would’ve guessed it in a hundred years or more
      G                                    A           D
I’d meet a lowland angel of the likes I’d never seen before
 D                                                 A
She grew up where the sun does run all across the sky
  G                D               G         D
Sweetened her up nice like some strawberry wine
     G                D           A         D
I crowned her in my mind, oh my Strawberry Queen

[Verse 2]
 D                                                A
I ain’t cut out for royalty, never saw myself a king
    G                                          A         D
No blue blood in these veins, just a mountain boy with dreams
       D                                                   A
But I got caught up in her love like a storm down in the Gulf
Continues after the ad
      G                   D           G             D
The high winds wreck my docks, the water rusts my lungs
     G                  D             A        D
My wave breaks on the rocks for my Strawberry Queen


[Chorus]
 Bm                               A            D
I ain’t the first to pledge my service to the crown
 Bm                         A                  D
I know her subjects in the past have let her down
 Bm                      A               D
Treasonous fools never come around this town
         Bm                        A                   D
Or I'd throw my fist and give 'em hell and stand my ground
 Bm       A         D
For my Strawberry Queen
 Bm       A          D
For my Strawberry Queen

[Verse 3]
D                                     A
I met her at a dancehall early one spring
           G                              A       D
Felt like Adam next to Eve staring at a fruit of God
        D                                                             A
So I wrapped a bow around my heart and placed it in a box of cherry wood
      G              D              G             D
I asked her if she could take that box and do it good
       G                  D             A          D
She smiled and said she would, oh my Strawberry Queen


[Chorus]
 Bm                               A            D
I ain’t the first to pledge my service to the crown
 Bm                         A                  D
I know her subjects in the past have let her down
 Bm                      A               D
Treasonous fools never come around this town
         Bm                        A                   D
Or I'd throw my fist and give 'em hell and stand my ground
 Bm       A         D
For my Strawberry Queen
 Bm       A          D
For my Strawberry Queen
