[Verse 1]
[A]That's Why [G]God Mad[D]e A Front
Porch
Craig Campbell, Lee Thomas Miller)

[Verse 2]
A young boy needs a place [D]to
sit and wait
Cause she ain't ever ready for [G]the date
That girl's daddy needs [Em]a quiet spot
[A]To tell that boy the what's
[D]and what nots
Someday soon he's gonna
bring her home
They'll sit on the swing
with that [G]light bulb on
He'll reach in the pocket
of his [Em]ole blue jeans
Pull [G]out a ring,
get [A]down on one [D]knee[A]

[Verse 3]
Chorus: That's why god made [G]a
front porch
Put a little creak in the [Bm]screen door
Something 'bout the sound of a [G]g- chord
Foot tappin' on [A]a loose [D]board[A]
Moon dancin' behind
[G]the willow tree
You can hear that bullfrog
[Bm]clear across the creek
That ole house gets a [Em]little [G]warm
That's why god made a front [Em]porch[G]

[Verse 4]
[A]I step over my ole dog and hea[D]d to work
Put in a full day till my [G]back hurts
As fast as this world goes [Em]'round
[A]and 'round
Everybody needs a place to [D]slow down
As my tires hit the gravel drive
The summer sun's hangin'
on [G]for dear life
There's my little angel
in her sun [Em]dress
Sittin' cross- [G]legged on the
[A]wood [D]steps[A]

[Verse 5]
Chorus: That's why god made [G]a
front porch
Put a little creak in the [Bm]screen door
Something 'bout the
sound of a [G]g- [D]chord[G]
Foot tappin' on [A]a loose [D]board[A][D][A]
Wind chimes jangle in the
[G]evening breeze
You can hear that bullfro
[A]g clear a[Bm]cross the creek
A peaceful rain follows a
[Em]thunderstorm[G]
That's why [A]god made [G]a
front porch
[Em][A]

[Verse 6]
Chorus:
Full moon dancin' behind
[G]the willow tree
You can hear that bullfrog
clear [Bm]across the creek
Yeah, that ole house gets
a [Em]little [G]warm
That's why [A]god [G]made
a front [A]porch[D]
That's why god [G]made a front porch
[D]
