[Intro]
G D A Bm7 x4
[Verse]
G D
Well my momma raised a scrapper
A Bm7
and my daddy raised a fool
G D
But I'd straighten out my arrow
A Bm7
If it meant I could have you
G D
And my cigarettes are flushed
A Bm7
And the booze is all poured out
G D
But I need you to say yes
A Bm7
Cus I'm Jonesin' about now
G D A Bm7 x2
[Verse]
G D
And I took you out that night
A Bm7
When I'd just turned 22
G D
And you didn't mind the fact
A Bm7
That I could not buy dinner for you
G D
And you sat down in that gravel
A Bm7
And you looked up at the stars
G D A Bm7
And you said that you thought God put us exactly where we are
G D A Bm7
[Chorus]
G D
Cus I'm exactly where I need to be
A Bm7
Right inside your company
G D
I never thought I'd be the man
A Bm7
To fight the devil for your hand
G D A Bm7
G D A Bm7
For your hand
[Verse]
G D
I'd go 90 down the highway
A Bm7
In the sideways pouring rain
G D
If it meant that I could take back
A Bm7
Just an ounce of your pain
G D
And I know I'm about as worthless
A Bm7
As the dust upon the clouds
G D
But there's a way you give purpose
A Bm7
To everyone you're around
G D A Bm7
[Chorus]
G D
Cus I'm exactly where I need to be
A Bm7
Right inside your company
G D
I never thought I'd be the man
A Bm7
To fight the devil for your hand
G D A Bm7
G D A Bm7
For your hand
G D
Well my momma raised a scrapper
A Bm7
and my daddy raised a fool
G D
But I'd straighten out my arrow
A Bm7
If it meant I could have you
G D A Bm7 x2
