through his ring down as she said her peace

Somethin' told me to get up, when I put that bottle down
C                                  D
and jumped in my pickup, tryin' to beat you outa town
G                                     D
I started thinkin' of promises that I promised to keep
C                               D
When I got down on one knee and gave you this ring
       Am                     D
I said you'd want for nothin' anymore.

A tear on your lips ..I kissed you and said
