Capo 3
Intro: (G) (D) (Em) (C) x 2
GJust a girl born in Dixie
DWashed in the blood
EmAnd raised on the banks
DOf the Mississippi mud
CShe always had a thing
G DAbout fallin' in love with a bad boy
GYea, they could see it all comin'
DBut her daddy never dreamed
EmShe'd grow up that fast
DYou know what I mean
C GThe way a girl gets when she turns 17
DKinda crazy
Chorus**
GShe's a rebel child
DAnd a preacher's daughter
Em CShe was baptized in dirty water
G DHer mama cried the first time
EmThey caught her with me
C DThey knew they couldn't stop her
G DShe holds tight to me and the Bible
Em COn the back seat of my motorcycle
GLeft her daddy standin' there
D Em C G DPreachin' to the choir you see...God love her
Em COh me and God love her
GShe kissed her mama goodbye
DSaid I'll be sure 'n phone ya
EmShe called from a truck stop
DIn Tucson Arizona
CWith amazing grace
G DWe made California line
GAnd then my gypsy life
DStarted takin' it's toll
CAnd the fast lane got empty
Emand out of control
GAnd just like an angel
DShe saved my soul from the devil
**Repeat Chorus then solo**
G DNow she holds tight to me and the Bible
Em COn the back seat of my motorcycle
GLeft her daddy standin' there
D Em C G DPreachin' to the choir you see...God love her
Em COh me and God love her
