Capo 3rd Fret

Intro: (D) (D)

It was a (D) hot June morning on the intersate

She was flaggin' me down, I was 20 mintues late

She was (G) broke down, north bound, Georgia line

I (D) pulled on the shoulder and offered her a ride

With (A) just one look, it was heart and soul

(G) We were like a river runnin' (A) out of control

When the (D) Tennessee river hits the Nickajack Dam

Up come the water over Nickajack land

Like a (G) top on a bottle when it's ready to blow

(D) Love is gonna take ya where it wants you to go

When you (A) buckle 'er down til she's beggin' to break

Well a (D) Tennessee River will make a Nickajack Lake

We spent a (D) week together in the next two nights

It was a barn burnin', nothin' ever felt so right

Be(G)fore we both knew it we were makin' some plans

Seein' (D) rings on our fingers, on both of our hands

Daddy (A) said I was crazy, mommas both cried

But you (G) gotta tell the world when you (A) got it inside

Repeat Chorus

(NC) Now we got a cabin with a window veiw

(NC) Of the water and the woods and the ol' dam too

We got a (G) lay away cradle her jeans are gettin' tight

I guess (D) lovin' makes livin', and livin' makes life

I (A) know how it is now's the way it should

Cause I (G) look outside, and (A) what do I see?

Repeat Chorus Twice
