Four Down And Twelve Across
By George Strait

Capo 1

Intro Chords:
D   G

  D          Bm
I don’t know what to think of it
G
Sometimes I hate it
A
Sometimes I love it
D                  Bm
Girl, this relationship we’re in
G                     A
To say the least it’s puzzlin’
       G                 D/F#
Like a crossword puzzle
            Em      A
Fill in the blanks

Chorus:
       D             Bm
What’s four down and twelve across
G              A                   D      
Two letter synonym for lost That’s me
      D              Bm
And a three letter word that rhymes with through
G          A        D               
Oh I get it, that’s you


Never believed in horoscopes
But to the left of the ad
For a new dishwashin’ soap
Dear Abby’s got some good advice
For a troubled couple lost in paradise
In the Living section
Page two

Chorus

       D           F#m        Em
That’s you, that’s me, that’s us
          A 
Sometimes love ain’t enough
   D       F#m
We try and try
        G                   A
For the life of me, why did we give up

Chorus

       D
That’s me
G          D
Oh, that’s us
       D             Bm           G  A      D
What’s four down and twelve across   That’s us

what is four down and twelve across mean?
-THSRACowgirl69 | 12/6/2004
It's a reference to a crossword puzzle...

-lmofle | 12/6/2004
this song kicks ass on this cd, also look who's back from town is another good'ner!
-melloyello420 | 1/14/2005
I think that a F#m will work instead of the Bm in the song.
