[Intro]
D5 Cadd9 G/B
D5 Cadd9 G/B
 
 
[Verse 1]
       D5
I got turned around in some little town
     Cadd9              G/B
I'd never been to before
        D5
Working my way through a middle-of-June
 Cadd9             G/B
Midnight thunderstorm
 
           D5
There was something in the headlights
    Cadd9              G/B
It stopped me on a dime
               D5
Well, she was scared to death, so I said
      Cadd9              G/B
Climb in and then she climbed
 
      D5         Cadd9 G/B
Ohh, ohh ohh yeah
 
 
[Verse 2]
              D5
Well, she was bruised and broke from head to toe
        Cadd9                       G/B
With a tear in her blood-stained shirt
           D5
She didn't tell the whole truth but she didn't have to
    Cadd9                     G/B
I knew what had happened to her
 
          D5
I didn't load her down with questions
      Cadd9                     G/B
That girl had been through enough
       D5
I just threw it in drive, looked in those eyes
       Cadd9               G/B
And I asked her where he was
 
 
[Chorus]
         D5
I don't know if he's an angel
        Cadd9                     G/B
'Cause angels don't do what he did
            D5
He was hellbent to find the man behind
          Cadd9             G/B
All the whiskey scars I hid
 
         D5
I never thought my day of justice
                    Cadd9           G/B
Would come from a judge under a seat
      D5                                 Cadd9
But I knew right then I'd never get hit again
                G/B
When he said to me
 
             D5
Wait in the truck
                   Cadd9 G/B
Just wait in the truck
 
 
[Verse 3]
         D5
Well, I knocked and knocked and no one came
      Cadd9                        G/B
So I kicked in his double-wide door
           D5
I let the hammer drop before he got
         Cadd9                   G/B
To that twelve he was reaching for
 
          D5
I didn't try to hide my pistol
          Cadd9        G/B
I didn't even try to run
                  D5
I just sat on the porch, smoking one of his cigarettes
           Cadd9              G/B
And waited for the cops to come
 
 
[Chorus]
    D5
I don't know if he's an angel
        Cadd9                     G/B
'Cause angels don't do what he did
            D5
He was hellbent to find the man behind
          Cadd9             G/B
All the whiskey scars I hid
 
         D5
I never thought my day of justice
                    Cadd9           G/B
Would come from a judge under a seat
      D5                                 Cadd9
But I knew right then I'd never get hit again
                G/B
When he said to me
 
             D5
Wait in the truck
                   Cadd9 G/B
Just wait in the truck
 
 
[Post-Chorus]
      D5
Whoa oah (whoa)
        Cadd9         G/B
Have mercy on me, Lord
              D5
Have mercy on me
              Cadd9           G/B
Have mercy on me-e (hey), Lord
 
 
[Bridge]
           D5
It's been sixty months and she still comes
   Cadd9                 G/B
To see me from time to time
       D5
It was worth the price, to see a brighter side
        Cadd9                    G/B
Of the girl I picked up that night
 
       D5
And I might be here forever
           Cadd9              G/B
It ain't paradise, that's true
            D5
But it's a whole hell of a lot better
         Cadd9               G/B
Than the place I sent him to, yeah
