[Verse 1]
[G]Your Daddy was mad as hell
[Em]He was mad at me and you
As he [C]tied that chain to the front of my car
and pulled me [Am]out of that ditch that we slid into
[G]Don't know what his problem is
[Em]Why he keeps dragging you away
Don't know [C]why I put up
with this shit
When you [Am]don't put out and

[Verse 2]
Zip City's so far away
[G]Your[Am][C]
[G][D][Am][C]
[G]Dad[D]dy [G]is a deacon
down [E]at the Salem Church of Christ
And He [C]makes good money as long as Reynolds [Am]Wrap
keeps everything wrapped up [G]tight
Your Mama's as good a wife and
[Em]Mama as she can be
And your [C]Sister's puttin' that sweet stuff
on every[Am]body in town [D]but me
Your Brother was the first-born,
got got ten [Em]fingers and ten toes
And it's a [C]damn good thing cause He needs all twenty [Am]to keep

[Verse 3]
Maybe it's the twenty-six mile mile [C]drive
from Zip City to Colbert [G]Heights
Keeps my mind [D]clean
Gets me through [Am]the night
Maybe you're just a destina[C]tion,
a place for me to go
A [G]way to keep from having to deal with my seven
[D]teen-year-old mind mind mind all [Am]alone
Keep your drawers on, girl,
[C]it ain't worth the fight
By the [G]time you drop them I'll
be gone
And you'll [D]be right where they fall the rest
of [Am]your life

[Interlude 2]

[Verse 4]
You say you're [Am]tired of me taking
you for gran[C]ted
Waiting' up till the last [G]minute to call
you up and see what you [D]want to do
Well you're [Am]only fifteen, girl,
you ain't got [C]no secretary
And "for [G]granted" is a mighty big
word for a coun[D]try girl like you
You know it's just [Am]your Daddy talking
Cause He knows [C]that blood red carpet at
[G]the Salem Church of Christ
[D]Ain't gonna ever see no wedding between [Am]me and you
[C]

[Verse 5]
Zip [G]City it's a good thing that they
[Em]built a wall around you
Zip [C]up to Tennessee then zip
back [Am]down [C]to Alabama
[G]I got 350 heads on [Em]a 305[E] engine[Em]
I get [C]ten miles to the gallon
I [Am]ain't got no good [C]intentions
