E

           E                                            A
She took a double-barrel twelve gauge buckshot to her alarm clock
       E                                        B
She'll kill that George Strait "Baby Blue" with one shot
          E
She was a cussin' and a screamin' off the wrong side of the bed
    A
And madder than hell with him in her head
          E                     B                   E
The whole trailer park knew the radio had done it again

    E
Ah, damn that radio for playin' their song
A
Stirring up a memory she thought was gone
    B
God knows that old DJ don't know what he's done
    E                                     ( E )
Ah, damn that radio for playin' their song

       E                                                  A
So she fired up the Chevy and she tore it up and down the rural route
E                                           B
Whitewalls ripping on two wheels 'round the courthouse
        E
She was mad at George and WKXY
           A
But she was lookin' for the sucker who had left her to cry
     E                B                      E
Everybody in town was runnin' for a place to hide

[chorus]

E A E B E

C#m         B                  E                   A
Down at the station, Lord, the phones ring all day long
C#m            B                 A                      B
The whole town calling begging, "please don't play that song!"

        E                                            A
Now the preacher was preachin' in the spirit of jubilation
     E                                    B
To a sunny day happy faced wedding congregation
             E
He read "til death do us part" straight outta the word
       A
Then a Chevy flew by and just flipped him the bird
         E                           B                      E
He said "Father forgive her!" as the bride ran shakin' her fist

[chorus]

A
Stirrin' up a memory she thought was gone
    B
God knows that old DJ don't know what he's done
    E
Ah, damn that radio
E
Damn that radio
E                   B   A   A7    E
Damn that radio for playin' their song


Or if you want to play the little riff at the end:

e | --------0- | 
B | --------0- | 
G | -4-2-0--1- | 
D | --------2- | 
A | -2-0----2- | 
E | -----3--0- | 

Top or bottom , either works.
