Don’t Take the Girl Tim McGraw
Johnny's daddy was taking him fishing,
[G]when he was 8 years old
[G]A little girl came through the front gate
[G]holding a fishing pole
[Bm7]His dad looked [C]down and smiled
[Bm7]Said we can't leave her [C]behind
[Am7]Son I know you don't [G]want her to go
But [C]someday you'll change your [D]mind
And Johnny [G]said
[G]Take Jimmy Johnson
[G]Take Tommy Thompson
[G]Take my best friend Bo
[G]Take anybody that you want as
[G]Long as she don't go
[G]Take any boy in the [Am7]world
Daddy [C]please[D]
Don't take the [G]girl
[G]Same ol' boy
[G]Same sweet girl
[G]Ten years down the road
[G]He held her tight and kissed her lips in
[G]Front of the picture show
[Bm7]A stranger came and [C]pulled a gun
[Bm7]Grabbed her by the [C]arm
[Am7]Said If you do what I [C]tell you to there
[C]Won't be any [D]harm
And Johnny [G]said
[G]Take my money
[G]Take my wallet
[G]Take my credit cards
[G]Here's the watch that my grandpa gave me
[G]Here's the key to my car
[G]Mr. give it a [Am7]whirl
But [C]please[D]
Don't take the [G]girl
[G]Same ol' boy
[G]Same sweet girl
[G]Five years down the road
[G]There's gonna be a little one and she
[G]Says it's time to go
[Bm7]Doctor said the [C]baby's fine
[Bm7]But you'll have to [C]leave
[Am7]Cause his mama's [C]fadin' fast and
[C]Johhny hit his [D]knees
And then he prayed
[G]Take the very breath you gave me
[G]Take the heart from my chest
[G]I'll gladly take her place if you'll have me
[G]Make this my last request
[G]Take me out of this [Am7]world
God [C]please[D]
Don't take the [G]girl
