Chords for Pretty Little One - Steve Martin and the Steep Canyon Rangers feat. Edie Brickell

So this is a story song and well I'll explain what a story song is in case you're an idiot. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Gm] _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _
It's a song that tells a story. _ _ _
_ [D] _ So this is a new one to add to [C#] the genre it's called [G] Pretty Little One.
_ _ [D] _ [A] _ [D] _
_ _ _ _ [C] _ _ [G] _ [C] _
_ _ [G] _ [C] _ _ _ [G] _ [C] _
[D] _ [G] _ _ _ _ [D] Saw a girl at a picture show, walked right [G] up and said [C] hello
Seemed to me like [G] a girl in need, [C] I'm a guy [G] who's built for speed
[C] You and me [G] could have some fun, you pretty little one
_ [D]
Took her riding around the town, ain't no [G] woman ever shut me [C] down
Never seen a [G] truck like this, [C] how about [G] a little kiss you pretty little one
_ _ [D] _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ [G] _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ [G] Pretty _ [D] little one, _ _ [G]
pretty _ [D] little one
_ Took her out about a month or so, she's my [G] gal I told her [C] so
She resisted [G] for a [C] bit, baby that's the [G] way of it you pretty little one
_ _ [D] Couple of times she tried to leave, told [C] her that don't work for me
Her daddy tried to [G] intervene, [C] folks I'm just a mean machine
I can handle [G] dumb old [C] pops, what's he done but [G] shovel [C] rocks
I said baby [G] that's [C] enough, I might have got [G] a little rough on the pretty little one
_ _ [D] _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ [G] _ _ _
[C] _ [D] _ _ _ _ [G] Pretty _ [D] little one, _ _ [G] pretty _
[D] little one
_ Then she called me late one night, said it's over let's not [C] fight
I said [G] sure but one more talk, [C] maybe just [Em] a little walk
Around the block a nice goodbye, you're so lovely honey pie
I went over picked her [C] up, got her in my pickup truck
Driving slow [G] around [C] the town, then I put [G] the pedal down
[C] Took her [G] out a gravel [C] road, stopped the truck where no one goes
This is where the [G] job gets done on the pretty little one _
_ [D] _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ [G] _ _ _ [D] _ _ _
_ [G] Pretty _ [D] little one, _ _ [G] pretty _ [D] little one
_ Blackest night that I had seen, in the [G] darkness I felt [C] mean
From my boot I [G] pulled a knife, [Am] said I'm [G] gonna take your life
[C] I was calm [G] as I can get, [C] so I lit a [G] cigarette
[C] In the [G] flicker I could see, [C] she had a [G] pistol trained on me
That pretty little one _
_ _ [D] _ _ [G] _ [D] _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ [G] _
_ _ _ [D] I said Mr.
O, fool my daddy [B] country cool
[C] Think my papa [D] knows [C] enough, guys like you [G] think they're tough
[C] He read it easy as [D] ABC, [C] that's when he gave [G] this gun to me
[C] And ever since your [G] truck arrived, [C] my hands been on this [D] [G] .45
I went at her with mine, she pulled the trigger, shot [C] me twice
[G] In the heart and in the [F#] head, took half her breast, slumped [G] over [C] dead
She bumped another [G] for good [C] luck, right between [G] my buttercups
That pretty little one
_ _ _ [D] _ _
[C] _ [G] _ _ _ [D] _ [G] _ _ _
[C] _ [D] _ _ _ _ [G] Pretty _ [D] little one, _ [G] pretty _ [D] little one
_ In the grave I'm dead and gone, the little gal [G] she [C] wrote this song
She came over [G] in due [C] course, sang to me [G] without remorse
Then she whispered to the ground
I'll let you have another round, my name is Lucy Allencott
[C] You should [G] know I [C] was not your [G] pretty little one
