THIS GIRL
Capo 1
Bb Dm7 Eb Cm7 F7 (x2)
[G]Father Father Father
It's [Gmaj7]been a long time how are you [Em7]doing?
[Em6] How is your son how are his [Em6]childr[Bm]en?
I bet they're [Em6]just like [A]me
You must be [G]tired, tired, tired
Of [Gmaj7]hearing prayers like mine no need to [Em7]answer
[Em6] Nobody likes knowing that [Em6]favors[Bm]
Are all they'll [Em6]ever [A]be
But there's this [F#m]girl this girl this girl this girl [A6]this girl
And I'd be the [Em]happiest backslider in the [G]world[Em][A]
If you would [Em7]tell her it's your [C2]will for us to [G]be[Gmaj7] toget[Em7]her
[Bb] [Dm7] [Eb] [Cm7] [F7]
[G]Father Father Father
You've [Gmaj7]seen me try and try to make her [Em7]love me
[Em6] I'd sell my soul to hear the [Em6]one th[Bm]ing
She thinks she'll [Em6]never [A]say[Amaj7][A6][Amaj7]
But now it's [G]Sunday Sunday Sunday
And her [Gmaj7]pretty voice is rising up to [Em7]ask you
Like I once did like I'm [Em6]about [Bm]to
If you could [Em6]show her the [A]way[Amaj7]
?Cause there's this [F#m]girl this girl this girl this girl [A6]this girl
And I'd be the [Em]happiest backslider in the [G]world[Em][A]
If you would [Em7]tell her it's your [C2]will for us to [G]be[Gmaj7] to ? [Em7]ge - [Gmaj7]ther
[G]I [Gmaj7]would [Em7] ne -[Gmaj7] ver [G]bo - [Gmaj7]ther [Em7]you [Gmaj7] a ? g[Bb]ain
Bb Dm7 Eb Cm7 F7 (x3)
[G]Father you of all gods ought to know[Gmaj7] how little to expect from [Em7]people
But I think you might be [Em6]pleasantly surprised to see what [Em6]this gi[Bm]rl
Would bring [Em6]out [Bm] [Em6] [Em6] [Bm] [Em6] of [A]me
But there's this [F#m]girl this girl this girl this girl [A6]this girl
And I'd be the [Em]happiest backslider in the [G]world[Em][A]
If you would [Em7]tell her it's your [C2]will for us to [G]be[Gmaj7] toget[Em7]her
[G]I [Gmja7]would [Em7]ne - [Gmaj7] ver
[G]Bother [Gmaj7]you ag[Em7]ain un[Gmaj7]less
you [G]want me[Gmaj7] to, Hell [Em7]we'll just [Gmaj7]both
hang [G]out with [Gmaj7]you in [Em7]heaven [Gmaj7]when we [G]die
