INTRO
G
We got married in high school,
C(add9) G Gsus
Had a baby when we turned 18.
G G/F# Em
I bagged groceries in the daytime,
Am D
At night I learned to fix TVs.
G G7
When you come by things the hard way,
C G Gsus G
Well you learn how to hold on tight
Am G
So don't think you can waltz in here
C D Dsus D
And take her without a fight.
C D G Gsus G
This ain't just some mere love come lately,
C D G (fill)
Its a precious thing you don't know nothing about.
C D
We were joined in the eyes of the lord,
G G/F# Em
In the eyes of our home town.
Am
Why don't you leave her alone?
D C(add9) G Gsus G
You're treadin' on sacred ground.
G
Guess I took for granted,
C(add9) G
She would never look at someone else.
G/F# Em
Now I got some patching up to do,
Am C D
Oh and I don't need your help.
G G7
I know you're the leaving kind,
C G
Well I sure hope you will.
Am G
Before she goes and burns those bridges
C D Dsus D
It took so long to build.
C D G Gsus G
This ain't just some mere love come lately,
C D G (fill)
Its a precious thing you don't know nothing about.
C D
We were joined in the eyes of the lord,
G G/F# Em
In the eyes of our home town.
Am
Why don't you leave her alone?
D G Em
You're treadin' on sacred ground.
Am G
Go on and leave her alone,
C D
Why don't you leave her alone?
Am Bm
Go on and leave her alone,
C D C(add9) G
You're treadin' on sacred ground.
