HARDY - wait in the truck (feat. Lainey Wilson) (CMA Awards 2022 Live Performance) Chords

[C#] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ Yeah, I turned around in some little town I'd never been to before
Working my way through a middle of June midnight
Thunderstorm there was something in the headlights
That stopped me on a dime
She was scared to death
So I said climb in and then she climbed
Oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah
_ _ _ _ Well, she was bruised and broke from head to toe with a tear in her bloodstained shirt
She didn't tell the whole truth, but she didn't have to I knew what had happened to her
And I didn't load her down with questions
That girl had been through enough
I just threw it in drive looked in those eyes and I asked her where he was
I don't know if he's an angel
Cuz I just [F#] don't do it.
He did [C#] he was helping to find a man
all the whiskey [F#] scars I [C#] Never
_ Justice would come from a judge [F#] under
[C#] But I knew right then I'd never get hit again when he said to me
Where do you try?
Just waiting to [F#] try
[C#] Well, I knocked and knocked and no one came so I [C#] kicked in [A#m] his double-eyed door
[C#] I let the hammer drop before he got to that 12
He [A#m] was reaching for [C#] and I didn't try to hide my pistol
I didn't even [A#m] try to run.
I [C#] just sat on the porch smoking one of his
Cigarettes and waited for the [A#m] cops to come

I
She still comes to see me from time to time
It was worth the price to see a brighter side of the girl I picked up that night
Then I might be
Forever it ain't paradise.
That's true
But it's a whole hell of a lot better
than the place I [F#] sent [A#] him to
