[Bb]
[Eb]
[F] She [Bb] was thirty [F]-something [Bb] when she crossed the [F] line [Eb] between Southern [Bb] Virginia [Cm] and North [F] Carolina
She was running away from [Bb] a broken [F] heart [Eb] with two [Bb] sleeping children [Cm] in the back of [F] the car
[Eb] The [F]
[Bb] man she had promised her whole life [Eb] had told her [Bb] that he [Cm] found somebody [F] new
Part of a wish she [Bb] could lay [F] down and die, [Eb] but the [Bb] parliament judge looked him straight [F] in the eyes
[Eb] Instead, [F]
that's when [Eb] she said, [F]
I've [Bb] got three [Eb] good reasons to [Bb] survive
[Eb]
[Bb] One is eight [Eb] years old and [Gm] one will soon [F] be turning [Eb] five
[Bb] The third one is [Eb] a woman [Gm] who [F] still has [Eb] a friend
[Dm] And that [Cm] makes three [F] good reasons to [Bb] survive

[Eb]
[F] called some friends up in Rocky Mountain [Eb] who said [Bb] they'd be glad [Cm] to [F] help her out
[Bb] They put her and the children in this family home
[Eb] She promised [Bb] she'd found [Cm] her own [F] place soon and [Eb] she thanked them [F] for their help
And [Eb] said softly to [F] herself, [Bb] I've got three [Eb] good reasons to [Bb] survive
[Eb]
[Bb] One is eight [Eb] years old and [Gm] one will soon [F] be turning [Eb] five
[Bb] The third one is [Eb] a woman [Gm] who [F] still has [Eb] a right
[Bb] And that [Cm] makes three [F] good reasons to [Bb] survive
[Eb]
[F] [Bb]
[Eb] Now
[Bb] [F] she's made [Gm] a brand [Eb] new home
[Bb] Her laughter's back, [Eb] her tears are gone
[Cm] If you ask her [Gm] what made her strong
[Eb] She'll just smile and [F]
say, [G] I [C] have three [F] good reasons to [C] survive
[F] [C] One is eight [F] years old and [Am] one has [G] just [F] turned five
[C] The third one is [F] a woman who [Am] never [G] lost [F] her bride
[C] And that [Dm] makes three [G] good reasons to [F] survive
[G] Oh, I have [Am]
three [G] good reasons to [C] survive
[A] [F]
[G] [C] Three good reasons to survive
[G] Oh, three good reasons to [F] survive
[C]

That's Miss Crystal Dale and right here singing with her is her sister, Miss Peggy Sue.
Peggy, take a bow, Peggy.
Hello, Crystal.
I love this job.
Let's do that again.
You know, I was watching her sing.
Crystal, come here a minute, will you please?
I was watching you sing and [Db] you're wearing high heels and I got to thinking if you took those high heels off, I bet that hair would drag the floor.
Probably not.
Let's see.
You want me to take my shoes off?
He's in the clothes [N] tonight, Crystal.
Oh, yeah, just about.
I just trimmed it a minute ago.
Yeah, well, you just trimmed just enough so [N] it wouldn't drag.
She said, I just trimmed it a minute ago.
How are you doing?
I'm doing great.
Crystal has gone into the water business.
Oh, I love water.
Wow.
Well, I use a lot, you know, with this hair.
Yes.
I'm surprised you didn't go into the shampoo business.
