Dont Take The Girl - Tim Mcgraw | Guitar Chords

[Intro]
---------------------
G

[Verse 1]
---------------------
G
 Johnny's daddy was takin' him fishin'
When he was eight years old
A little girl came through the front gate
Holdin' a fishin' pole

[Pre-Chorus (1)]
---------------------
Bm7                   C
    His dad looked down and smiled
Bm7                                C
    Said, "We can't leave her behind
Am7                          G/B
   Son, I know you don't want    her to go
    C                               D7sus4
But someday you'll change your mind"
And Johnny said

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
G
 Take Jimmy Johnson, take Tommy Thompson
Take my best friend, Bo
Take anybody that you want as
Long as she don't go
                         Am
Take any boy in the world
              C D7sus4                   G
Daddy, please,        don't take the girl

[Verse 2]
---------------------
G
 Same old boy, same sweet girl
Ten years down the road
He held her tight and kissed her lips in
Front of the picture show

[Pre-Chorus (2)]
---------------------
Bm7                        C
    Stranger came and pulled a gun
Bm7                      C
    Grabbed her by the arm
Am7                            G/B
   Said, "If you do what I tell    you to, there
C                  D7sus4
 Won't be any harm"
And Johnny said

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
G
 Take my money, take my wallet
Take my credit cards
Here's the watch that my grandpa gave me
Here's the key to my car
                       Am7
Mister, give it a whirl
            C D7sus4                   G
But, please,        don't take the girl

[Verse 3]
---------------------
G
 Same old boy, same sweet girl
Five years down the road
There's gonna be a little one and she
Says, "It's time to go"

[Pre-Chorus (3)]
---------------------
Bm7                    C
    Doctor says, "The baby's fine
Bm7                        C
    But you'll have to leave
Am7                      G/B
   'Cause his momma's fadin' fast" and
C                    D7sus4
 Johnny hit his knees
And there he prayed

[Chorus (3)]
---------------------
G
 Take the very breath you gave me
Take the heart from my chest
I'll gladly take her place if you'll let me
Make this my last request
                         Am7
Take me out of this world
            C D7sus4
God, please,        don't take the girl

[Outro]
