God Love Her

        G                    D/F#
Just a girl born in Dixie, washed in
 the blood
      Em                      
And raised on the banks of the 
    C
Mississippi mud
      G                        
She always had a thing about 
D/F#                 C         D/F#
fallin' in love with a bad boy

                  G                
Yeah, they could see it all comin' 
         D/F#
but her daddy never dreamed
       Em                     C
She'd grow up that fast, you know 
what I mean
     G                        D/F#
The way a girl gets when she turns
                   C      D/F#
 seventeen, kinda crazy

          G                 D/F#
She's a rebel child and a preacher's
 daughter
         Em           C
She was baptized in dirty water
 G                  D/F#          
Her mama cried the first time they
               Em
 caught her with me
      C                  D/F#
They knew they couldn't stop her

G                D/F#
She holds tight, me and the Bible

       Em               C
On the back seat of my motorcycle
G                           
Left her daddy standin' there

God love her
Oh, me and God love her!

                G                
She kissed her mama goodbye, said 
  D/F#
I'll be sure 'n phone ya
     Em                            
She called her from a truck stop in

 Tucson Arizona
      G             D/F#  
With Amazing Grace, we made 
              C     D/F#
California line

         G                    
And then my gypsy life started 
  D/F#
takin' its toll
         Em                      
And the fast lane got empty and out 
Cm
of control
     C                  G         
And just like an angel she saved 
               D/F#
my soul from the devil

Yeah,      G                 D/F#
She's a rebel child and a preacher's
 daughter
         Em           C
She was baptized in dirty water

 caught her with me
      C                  D/F#
