Drive-By Truckers – Marry Me (Guitar)

         D                             C
Well, my daddy didn't pull out, but he never apologized 

G                    D                      C
Rock and roll means well, but it can't help tellin' young boys lies. 

  D                                        C
A baby on the way's a good enough reason to get you out alive 

G                   D                 C
Get you out without having to swallow any pride. 

       D                              C
All my friends are restless, all they do is talk it down,

G                   D                     C
two or eight lanes, it don't matter, it's just another town.

        D                                        C
There's a fool on every corner, on every street, in every one

    G                       D                             C 
and I'd rather be your fool nowhere than go somewhere and be no one's 

         Em        D               C
So marry me, sweet thing won't you marry me 

     G             D                   C
Your Mama thinks I beat anything she's ever seen 

G                D                         C
This old town's alright with me, there's nowhere I'd rather be. 

        G                D                 C
Long as they stay mad at one another, they can't get mad at me 

      D                           C
Every time I leave here something bad happens to me

G                     D                C
Like a busted hand or finding some man laying where I sleep

          D                                      C
She don't mean nothing to me, that's just how it goes round here

     G               D                           C 
It's a cartoon town, I play my part, and I ain't spoke her name in years 

         Em        D               C
So marry me, sweet thing won't you marry me 

     G             D                   C

        G                D                 C
Long as they stay mad at one another, they can't get mad at me 

Am                              Em
I don't want anything I done to be nobody's fault 

G                               C                         C/B
Even if they got more money and mouth than they got balls. 

Am                                     Em
That's just how it went down, right or wrong, it's just that way. 

G                                     D
Just cause I don't run my mouth don't mean I got nothing to say

         Em        D               C
So marry me, sweet thing won't you marry me 

     G             D                   C

      Em        D                C
Marry me, sweet thing, won't you marry me

      Em        D                C
Marry me, sweet thing, won't you marry me
