[Intro]

[Verse]
       C
I got turned around in some little town
     Bb              Am
I'd never been to before
        C
Working my way through a middle-of-June
 Bb              Am7
Midnight thunderstorm
 
           C
There was something in the headlights
    Bb              Am
It stopped me on a dime
               C
Well, she was scared to death, so I said
      Bb               Am
Climb in and then she climbed
 
      C          Bb Am
Ohh, ohh ohh yeah
 
 
[Verse]
               C
Well, she was bruised and broke from head to toe
        Bb                        Am
With a tear in her blood-stained shirt
            C
She didn't tell the whole truth but she didn't have to
   Bb                       Am7
I knew what had happened to her
 
          C
I didn't load her down with questions
      Bb                     Am
That girl had been through enough
        C
I just threw it in drive, looked in those eyes
       Bb                Am7
And I asked her where he was
 
 
[Chorus]
         C
I don't know if he's an angel
        Bb                      F
'Cause angels don't do what he did
            C
He was hellbent to find the man behind
         Bb              F
All the whiskey scars I hid
 
         C
I never thought my day of justice
                   Bb            F
Would come from a judge under a seat
       C                                  Bb
But I knew right then I'd never get hit again
                F
When he said to me
 
             C
Wait in the truck
                  Bb  F
Just wait in the truck
 
 
[Verse]
        C
Well I knocked and knocked and no one came
      Bb                        Am
So I kicked in his double-wide door
           C
I let the hammer drop before he got
         Bb                    Am7
To that twelve he was reaching for
 
          C
I didn't try to hide my pistol
          Bb         Am7
I didn't even try to run
                   C
I just sat on the porch, smoking one of his cigarettes
           Bb              Am7
And waited for the cops to come
 
 
[Chorus]
         C
I don't know if he's an angel
        Bb                      F
'Cause angels don't do what he did
            C
He was hellbent to find the man behind
         Bb              F
All the whiskey scars I hid
 
         C
I never thought my day of justice
                   Bb            F
Would come from a judge under a seat
       C                                  Bb
But I knew right then I'd never get hit again
                F
When he said to me
 
             C
Wait in the truck
                  Bb  F
Just wait in the truck
 
 
[Post-Chorus]
      C
Whoa oah (whoa)
              Bb   F
Have mercy on me, Lord
              C
Have mercy on me
 
              Bb           F
Have mercy on me-e (hey), Lord
 
 
[Bridge]
           C
It's been sixty months and she still comes
   Bb                   F
To see me from time to time
        C
It was worth the price, to see a brighter side
        Bb                    Am
Of the girl I picked up that night
 
       C
And I might be here forever
          Bb              C
It ain't paradise that's true
            C
But it's a whole hell of a lot better
          Bb              F
Than the place I sent him to, yeah
