Capo 1

               D
She locked her fingers and bowed her head
             Bm                   G
She said I'm late, and I'm really scared
        D
You can go but I hope you stay
          Bm             G  
I'm gonna keep it either way


Chorus:
      D                         G               D 
In my daddy's El Camino, in her driveway in the rain
D                                      A             G
Staring through the windshield I could see my future change
A      D                              G                     Bm
And my heart hit like a hammer and my thoughts were running wild
    A                                G              D 
Any fool can make a baby, it takes a man to raise a child


I laid my head down on the wheel
She said I know, I know, it don't seem real
She closed her eyes, but the tears flowed through
She said don't hate me for lovin you


Chorus


Bridge:
       Em 
Well I could not reassure her
           D/F#
I couldn't say what I had planned
           G
I couldn't put three words together
   A      Asus2 A
So I just       took her hand

Chorus

It takes a man
