Reba McEntire – Bobby (Guitar)

G                           C                 G
Bobby pleaded guilty to the charges that they read

                                      C                      D
As they led him from the courtroom, a young voice turned his head

  C                                G                C
A little boy, dressed in blue, was standing at the rail

                     Em          C        G     D
He said "I hope they kill you. I hope you go to hell."

G                                C            G
They locked Bobby in a jail with forty other men

                                              C                D
They all knew what he had done, and they were glad to take him in

C                                   G             C
They'd all seen the headlines about Bobby and his wife

                    Em         C      G        D
How they loved each other, and how he took her life

Em                Em7  C      ~
Day after day, he sat alone

Am                        G                 D
Night after night, they'd hear him sing his song, he'd sing

G               C                               G
Baby, I'll take care of you, I'll never let you down

                  C                           D
No harm will ever come to you as long as I'm around

Em        C             G             C
I am not afraid of what people say or do

    Am           Em            C     D
The only thing I fear is being here

N.C.    C
Without you___

N.C. G                                  C          G
The  little boy dressed up in blue grew up to be a man

                                 C            D
When he fell in love himself, he came to understand

C                              G               C
How it was that Bobby took the life they both adored

                      Em               C      G  D
'Cause Bobby couldn't stand to see her suffer anymore

G                               C                 G
He took out the papers from the trunk beneath his bed

                                      C                    D
And all the years just disappeared as through his tears he read

    C                            G                 C
The stories of the accident that robbed his mama's mind

                         Em              C        G       D
And the man who held her in his arms and chose to cut the line

        Em                    Em7   C      ~
And the one about the man who sits alone

Am               G           D
Year after year, singing his song      

G               C                               G
Baby, I'll take care of you, I'll never let you down

                  C                           D
No harm will ever come to you as long as I'm around

Em        C             G             C
I am not afraid of what people say or do

    Am           Em            C     D
The only thing I fear is being here

N.C.    G         C

N.C. G                               C                  G
The  young man drove his car up, and parked outside the gate

                                      C                 D
They led him to a cold grey room, the guard told him to wait

C                                    G                 C
When the guard brought Bobby in, the young man finally knew

                    Em             C          G     D
He still missed his mama, but he'd missed his daddy too

         Em                    Em7   C      ~
When the guard left the two of them alone

Am                                 G                  D
He took Bobby in his arms, and the young man sang his song

G                C                               G
Daddy, I'll take care of you, I'll never let you down

                  C                           D
No harm will ever come to you as long as I'm around

Em                 C                G              C
You have taught me not to fear what people say and do

        Am              Em            C     D
And the only thing that hurts is being here

N.C.    C        
Without you___
