[Intro 1]
[F#m][D][F#m][A][G][D][G]
[D][G][D][A][D]

[Verse 1]
I [D]never
would've guessed it in a hundred years or [A]more
I'd [G]meet [Bm]a lowland [G]an gel,
the likes I'd [A]never seen before
[D]She grew up where the sun does
run hot across the [A]sky
[G]Sweetened [Bm]her [D]up nice
like [G]some strawberry [D]wine
I [G]crowned her in my [D]mind,
oh my [A]Strawberry Queen

[Interlude 1]
[D][A][G][D]
[G][D][G][D][A][D]

[Verse 2]
I [D]ain't cut out for royalty,
never saw myself [A]a king
No [G]blue blood in these veins,
just a moun[A]tain boy with [D]dreams
But I got caught up in her love like
a storm down [A]in the Gulf
The [G]high winds [D]wreck my docks,
the [G]water rust[D]s my locks
My [G]wave breaks on [D]the rocks for
my [A]Strawberry Queen
[D]

[Verse 3]
[Bm]
I ain't the first to pledge my
[A]service to the [D]crown[Bm]
I know her subjects in the pas
[A]t have let her dow[D]n
[Bm]Treasonous fools never
[A]come around this [D]town
Or [A]I'd [Bm]throw my fist and give
'em [A]hell and stand my [D]ground
[A]For [Bm]my S[A]traw[D]berry Queen
[A]For my [Bm]Straw[A]be[D]rry Queen

[Interlude 2]

[D]

[Verse 4]
I [D]met her at a dance hall early [A]one spring
Felt like [G]Adam next to Eve
staring [A]at a fruit of [D]God
So I wrapped a bow around my heart
And placed it in a box [A]of cherry wood
I [G]asked her if she [D]could take
that [G]box and do it [D]good
She [G]smiled and said [D]she would
[A]Oh my Strawberry Queen
[D][A][D]

[Verse 5]
[Bm]
I ain't the first to pledge my
[A]service to [D]the crown[Bm]
I know her subjects in the pas
[A]t have let her dow[D]n
[Bm]Treasonous fools never
[A]come around this [D]town
Or [Bm]I'd throw my fist and give
[A]'em hell and stand my [D]ground
For [Bm]my S[A]traw[D]berry Queen
For [Bm]my S[A]trawberry Queen
