Shotgun Wedding Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
I [G]was [D]roa[G]ming around
down [C]in the [G]hills of [C]Tennessee
I [G]met a [C]little gal
and she fell in love with me
She took me to her home
where I met her ma and pa
I [G]had my [C]arms around her
but she [G]didn't [C]care at all
Her pa looked kinda [D]angry
[C]as he says hello to [D]me
An[G]d a shotgun went and s[C]watted
[G]lead up [C]the [G]D
We was sittin' on the porch,
just a -gazin' at the stars
I was showin' her the dipper,
she was fartin' up to Mars
[C]I hauled off and kissed her,
kinda all out of fun
I [G]heard her paw, I smossed her,
where's the shill, she's [C]my [G]gun
[C]That [G]picked [D]-up -a -fire
looked like a dozen to me
And a [G]shotgun wins
what it turned out to [C]be[G]
[C][G]
[C][G][C]
[D][G][C][G][D]
[G]We walked through the
preacher's [C]house,
it's [G]shaking all about
The preacher said to me,
it's kinda late to be out
But [C]you just gotta marry me
and sweet Elizabeth
You [G]see, sir, it's urgent,
it's a case of wife or death
My [D]darlin' was beside me
just as happy as could be
It [G]was a shotgun waitin'
down in old Tennessee
Her pappy [C]was a -peepin'
through the [G]back door,
[C]kissin' a lot
I [G]felt just like a runnin',
[C]but I knew I'd better not
I didn't think I loved her,
but I know now I do
There'd [G]never [C]be another girl
to [G]be quite [C]so true
I think it was a [D]frame -up,
but it's all right [G]with me
[D]It was a sho[G]tgun[C] wedding
down in [G]old [C]Tenness[G]ee

[Outro 1]
