Thank You
Recorded by Bart Crow Band
You were (G)sitting on the front porch with a (Bm)wine glass in your hand
North (C)side of Waxahatchee where I (D)tried to make a stand
(G)I sit down beside you, you (Bm)smiled and I said "hi!"
I (C)knew I had to have you and I (D)knew that I'd die trying
(Chorus)
And you (C)looked just like an angel, like I (D)never seen before
I was (G)all the way from Georgia where I (C)gone to fought the war
I knew that I had fell in love when I (D)drove away that night
I (G)wanted to say (C)thank you for (D)giving me this (G)life
Solo: / / / |(Bm) |(C) |(D)(D/C)(D/B)(D/A)
I'll (G)always hear about you from that (Bm)night the time drag on,
And (C)when I was around you, play (D)cool and not let on.
And (G)I was crazy about you, but your (Bm)age was 17
I (C)knew how much I loved you, I just (D)hoped that you loved me
(Chorus)
And you (C)looked just like an angel, like I (D)never seen be-(D/F#)fore
I was (G)all the way from Georgia (G/B)where I (C)gone to fought the war
I knew that I had fell in love when I (D)drove away that (D/F#)night
I (G)wanted to say (C)thank you for (D)giving me this (G)life
Solo: / / / |(Bm) |(C) |(D)(D/C)(D/B)(D/A)
And (G)six years 'till today, music (Bm)play, we sang along
North (C)side of Stevenville where I (D)used to rock my songs
Now (G)three years we've been married, (G/A)still in (Bm)love and singing songs
From the (C)south side of Austin, that's (D)where we make our home
(Chorus)
And you (C)looked just like an angel, (C/E) like I (D)never seen be-(D/F#)fore
I was (G)all the way from Geor-(G/A)gia (G/B)where I (C)gone to fought the war
I knew that I had fell in love (C/E) when I (D)drove away that (D/F#)night
I (G)wanted to say (C)thank you for (D)giving me this (G)life

(Chorus)
And you (C)still look like an angel, like I (D)never seen before
I was (G)just a boy from April who came (C)back from a fight in war
I knew that I had fell in love when I (D)drove away that night.
I (G)wanted to say (C)thank you for (D)giving me this (G)life
