I've been knowing her for years
          Am                  G
I've been seeing her for years
        Em              D
She got dark, dark wavy hair
       Am                       
With a voice like she just don't 
 G

          Em                  D
She got a skirt with a halter top

She got a dad who never gave a ****
             Em                    
She drinks a beer with her mom 'til
 D

                Am             G
She got knocked up in a pickup truck
            Em                  
But she got engaged when she was 
     D
nineteen
        Am                    G
To this dude who was acting insane
        Em               D
Had a .45 that he always cleaned
         Am              G
Said one day one day one too many 
days
        Em                  D
Now she ducked and she ran away
            Am                     
Never to be heard from, never to be
 G
 seen
            Em             D
I check the cover of a magazine
         Am                 
I'm just wondering how, just 
 G         D/F#
wondering

[Chorus]

 a target
                Em
And it won't be long before
       D                 Am      G
You're pulling yourself away
