      MAKE UP IN LOVE        Doug Stone

E
Bobby was a beautiful girl from
    A
A small town in a great big world
E                     B7                   A        B7
Her daddy owned the corner store off of second aven-ue
E
Danny Joe just turned nineteen
A
Cigerettes rolled up under his sleeve
E                       B7                   A   B7 
His leather jacket and faded jeans and bad atti-tude
E                        A
But his heart can't be tuff
E                       B7    
When you're falling in love He said
A  E        B7         E                A
I know I'm down on my knees But I wanna be the one, your only one
                  B7
I'm beggin' you please
    A  E           A               E
And I know that I don't have that much
           A              B7
But for whatever I don't have 
                 E
I'll make up in love
E                          A
Her daddy was a simple man He raised Bobby with a real stern hand
E                     B7             A              B7 
Said he never would understand Just what she saw in him
E
After working at the store all day
A
Bringing home an honest day's pay
E                     B7                  A              B7  
Man, you should have seen his face when Danny Joe walked in
E                      A      E                 B7 
Saying "Please under-stand" with a ring in his hand He said
A  E        B7                          A
I know I'm down on my knees But I wanna be the one, her only one
                  B7
I'm beggin' you please
    A   E          A               E
And I know that I don't have that much
           A              B7
But for whatever I don't have 
                  E
I'll make up in love

lead
A                       B7                 E
Now he looks back and smiles at how they walked down the aisle
        B7              E
Twenty years have gone by
      A                        E
He remembers it still How she bent his will
        B7
With a look in her eyes

Now he know she was right when she said
A   E       B7          E                A
Dad-dy I'm down on my knees But I wanna be the one, his only one
                 B7
I'm beggin' you please
    A  E            A               E  
And I know that he don't have that much
          A                B7
But for whatever we don't have 
                  E
We'll make up in love

ENDING:
      B7                                      E
For whatever they don't have they make up in love
