Good Lord Lorrie
By Turnpike Troubadours


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 D-Queens dry so I bought us both a bottle in downtown Broken Bow
Lorries 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
