SONG: WAIT IN THE TRUCK ARTIST: HARDY ft. LAINEY WILSON TAB BY: DON CZARSKI EMAIL: [email protected] WAIT IN THE TRUCK HARDY ft. LAINEY WILSON TUNING: STANDARD CAPO: 1st FRET [Intro] C C Bb Am C C Bb7 Am7 [Verse]
       C
I got turned around in some little town

     Bb              Am
I'd never been to before

        C
Working my way through a middle-of-June

 Bb              Am7
Midnight thunderstorm

           C
There was something in the headlights

    Bb              Am
It stopped me on a dime

               C
Well, she was scared to death, so I said

      Bb               Am
Climb in and then she climbed

      C          Bb Am
Ohh, ohh ohh yeah
[Verse]
               C
Well, she was bruised and broke from head to toe

        Bb                        Am
With a tear in her blood-stained shirt

            C
She didn't tell the whole truth but she didn't have to

   Bb                       Am7
I knew what had happened to her

          C
I didn't load her down with questions

      Bb                     Am
That girl had been through enough

        C
I just threw it in drive, looked in those eyes

       Bb                Am7
And I asked her where he was
[Chorus]
         C
I don't know if he's an angel

        Bb                      F
'Cause angels don't do what he did

            C
He was hellbent to find the man behind

         Bb              F
All the whiskey scars I hid

         C
I never thought my day of justice

                   Bb            F
Would come from a judge under a seat

       C                                  Bb
But I knew right then I'd never get hit again

                F
When he said to me

             C
Wait in the truck

                  Bb  F
Just wait in the truck
[Verse]
        C
Well I knocked and knocked and no one came

      Bb                        Am
So I kicked in his double-wide door

           C
I let the hammer drop before he got

         Bb                    Am7
To that twelve he was reaching for

          C
I didn't try to hide my pistol

          Bb         Am7
I didn't even try to run

                   C
I just sat on the porch, smoking one of his cigarettes

           Bb              Am7
And waited for the cops to come
[Chorus]
         C
I don't know if he's an angel

        Bb                      F
'Cause angels don't do what he did

            C
He was hellbent to find the man behind

         Bb              F
All the whiskey scars I hid

         C
I never thought my day of justice

                   Bb            F
Would come from a judge under a seat

       C                                  Bb
But I knew right then I'd never get hit again

                F
When he said to me

             C
Wait in the truck

                  Bb  F
Just wait in the truck
[Post-Chorus]
      C
Whoa oah (whoa)

              Bb   F
Have mercy on me, Lord

              C
Have mercy on me

              Bb           F
Have mercy on me-e (hey), Lord
[Bridge]
           C
It's been sixty months and she still comes

   Bb                   F
To see me from time to time

        C
It was worth the price, to see a brighter side

        Bb                    Am
Of the girl I picked up that night

       C
And I might be here forever

          Bb              C
It ain't paradise that's true

            C
But it's a whole hell of a lot better

          Bb              F
Than the place I sent him to, yeah
[Outro]
C
(Have mercy, have mercy, have mercy on me)

             Bb
Wait in the truck (have mercy on me)

F                  C
 Just wait in the truck
(Have mercy, have mercy, have mercy on me)
             Bb
