                             TWO PINK LINES - Eric Church

Tuning: Drop D

I got this from a video of Eric Church playing this on his tailgate. Here is the 
link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y1jCiHgmONA

CAPO ON 3!!!

Chords used (all relative to capo):

D:  000232
G:  5x0050
A2: 002200
Bm: 004432
Bb: 222000
C:  444000
C#: 555000

So during the verse, Eric does this little riff to start each chord progression. The 
chord progression in the verse is D, G, A2, D

And to start each progression he plays this little riff before strumming the D chord 
(refer to the video if you need some help)

e|----------|
B|----------|
G|----------|
D|------0---|
A|--0h2-----|
E|----------|

So the idea for the verse is this: Riff, D, G, A2, D, then repeat the over and over 
until the progression changes. once you have this little part down, the rest is super easy 
to get.

Heres the chords in the song

       D               G           A2     D
He was pacin' back and forth on her front porch
         D           G            A2       D
I pulled up slingin' gravel in my daddy's Ford
    D             G      A2         D
She cried all the way to Johnson's store
  D              G           A2            D
I kept the motor runnin' and parked by the door

           D            G            A2           D
Yeah I was foolish and wild, she was classic and regal
        D            G           A2      D
We were fresh out of school both barely legal
        D            G        A2             D
We were young and on fire and just couldn't wait
D         G           A2           D
Six weeks in, she was three weeks late
Bm                 G
One means none and we're home free
Bm                    A2
Two means three and a diamond ring


Chorus:
     D              D       G     D
Yeah wonderin' what fate is gonna decide
           G              D          A        D
We're just sittin' around waitin' on two pink lines
G              D          A        D
Sittin' around waitin' on two pink lines

Verse:

    D             G           A2       D
Her daddy's gonna kill me and that's a fact
            D          G        A2         D
Maybe we'll just leave town and never come back
           D               G         A2              D
Or I could stand there and tell him, face him like a man
   D        G             A2    D
Aw who am I kiddin' he'll never understand
     Bm                     G
That second hand just keeps slowin' down
           Bm                          A2
I swear it stopped twice the last time around


Chorus 2:
      D        D        G              D
We'll know the truth in three minutes' time
           G              D          A2       D
We're just sittin' around waitin' on two pink lines
G              D          A2       D
Sittin' around waitin' on two pink lines


Bridge:
A2
Hot summer nights whisperin' her name
G
Under a blanket by the river bank
A2
Hearts beating fast we never thought twice
G                       A2
She pulled me close and I held on tight

         D         G     A2      D
When the moment of truth finally comes
    D          G             A2    D
She gives me a look and then comes undone
         D                G      A2                D
She says looks like we're lucky, Someone's smilin' down
    D         G             A2     D
She grabs her coat and says See ya around

Chorus 3:

Bm                  G
Yeah these days the rabbit doesn't die
         G          D          A2       D
You just sit around waitin' on two pink lines
D            D       G       D
Prayin' that fate is on your side
G              D          A2       D
Sittin' around waitin' on two pink lines
G              D          A2       D
Sittin' around waitin' on two pink lines
