[Verse 1]
C                                                   G
I never would’ve guessed it in a hundred years or more
      Fmaj7                                G           C
I’d meet a lowland angel of the likes I’d never seen before
 C                                                 G
She grew up where the sun does run all across the sky
  Fmaj7            C               Fmaj7     C
Sweetened her up nice like some strawberry wine
     Fmaj7            C           G         C
I crowned her in my mind, oh my Strawberry Queen

[Verse 2]
 C                                                G
I ain’t cut out for royalty, never saw myself a king
    Fmaj7                                      G         C
No blue blood in these veins, just a mountain boy with dreams
       C                                                   G
But I got caught up in her love like a storm down in the Gulf
      Fmaj7               C           Fmaj7         C
The high winds wreck my docks, the water rusts my locks
     Fmaj7              C             G        C
My wave breaks on the rocks for my Strawberry Queen
 
 
[Chorus]
 Am                               G            C
I ain’t the first to pledge my service to the crown
 Am                         G                  C
I know her subjects in the past have let her down
 Am                      G               C
Treasonous fools never come around this town
         Am                        G                   C
Or I'd throw my fist and give 'em hell and stand my ground
 Am    G          C
For my Strawberry Queen
 Am    G          C
For my Strawberry Queen

[Verse 3]
C                                     G
I met her at a dancehall early one spring
           Fmaj7                          G       C
Felt like Adam next to Eve staring at a fruit of God
        C                                                             G
So I wrapped a bow around my heart and placed it in a box of cherry wood
      Fmaj7          C              Fmaj7         C
I asked her if she could take that box and do it good
       Fmaj7              C             G          C
She smiled and said she would, oh my Strawberry Queen
 
 
[Chorus]
 Am                               G            C
I ain’t the first to pledge my service to the crown
 Am                         G                  C
I know her subjects in the past have let her down
 Am                      G               C
Treasonous fools never come around this town
         Am                        G                   C
Or I'd throw my fist and give 'em hell and stand my ground
 Am    G          C
For my Strawberry Queen
 Am    G          C
For my Strawberry Queen
