Good Lord Lorrie
By Turnpike Troubadours
Tabbed By Larry Mofle
7/22/2012
Update 4/7/13: Just watched a video of Evan Felker doing this acoustic and I have everything correct except
the chorus. Instead of the G to G/F# to Em to D to C walk down I have in this tab, he goes G to D/F# to Em to
D/F# to C.
While I am certain my progression will work and I had considered the D/F# instead of the G/F#, I wanted to be
sure the rest of you play it as written by Evan. The video is at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D7XPuTNC7L4
G Em C G
Lorrie lit a cigarette and smiled and waved the smoke out of her face
G Em C G C G
With her black hair brown from the summer sun, green eyes, looked around the place
G Em C G
Then she told me that she loved me and I grinned and grabbed her hand and said I know
G Em C G
Lets get from here now darlin', if we're goin' lets go on and go
G Em C G twice
Well Lorrie said her family used to have a little money and they still act like they do
But your daddy don't think I'm fit to sit in the same room with you
And if I ever set foot in Sevier County, well your brother said he'd break my jaw
Here I stand with a dark haired daughter of southwest Arkansas
Chorus:
C C/B Am G G/F# Em
And I've been learnin' that believin' and that barely breakin' even
C C/B Am G
It's just a part of life for you and me
C C/B Am G G/F# Em
And I've been livin' with the loneliness, it's got down in my bones I guess
C C/B Am D
It's just another phase of being free
Am C
And I've been learnin' how to lose a thing I never laid a hand on all along
G G/F# Em D C
Well good lord Lorrie, I love you, could it go more wrong
G G/F# Em D C
Well good lord Lorrie, I love you, could it go more wrong
Am G Em C G Em C G
La, da, da, da, da, da ,da ,da ,da ,da ,da
Well De Queen's dry so I bought us both a bottle in downtown Broken Bow
Lorrie's got a buddy with a double wide trailer, they were shaking dominoes
And I had good intentions 'til I had too many, I was stupid I suppose
You better put a little money where your mouth is boy and try to keep it closed
Chorus
Harmonica
Well Lorrie said I wonder what we ever went through all this trouble for
You ain't half of who I thought you was and this ain't fun no more
And her words cut clean through drunk and dark and dimmin' doorway light
Well I've had all I can handle, hope you're happy now, goodnight
G C G C G
Guess her folks were right, guess her folks were right
C
Mhmmm
G G/F# Em D C
Well goodnight Lorrie, I love you, could it go more wrong
G G/F# Em D C
Well goodnight Lorrie, I love you, could it go more wrong
Am G
La, da, da, da, da, da ,da ,da ,da ,da ,da
