       C#
I got turned around in some little town
     B              A#m
I'd never been to before
        C#
Working my way through a middle-of-June
 B              A#m7
Midnight thunderstorm
           C#
There was something in the headlights
      B             A#m
It stopped me on a dime
                C#
Well, she was scared to death, so I said
      B                A#m
Climb in and then she climbed
      C#         B A#m
Ohh, ohh ohh yeah

Well, she was bruised and broke from head to toe
With a tear in her blood-stained shirt
She didn't tell the whole truth,
but she didn't have to
I knew what had happened to her
I didn't load her down with questions
That girl had been through enough
I just threw it in drive, looked in those eyes
And asked her where he was

Chorus:
         C#
I don't know if he's an angel
       B                        F#
'Cause angels don't do what he did
           C#
He was hellbent to find the man behind
          B             F#
All the whiskey scars I hid
          C#
I never thought my day of justice
                   B            F#
Would come from a judge under a seat
       C#                                 B
But I knew right then I'd never get hit again
                F#
When he said to me
             C#
Wait in the truck
                   B  F#
Just wait in the truck

Well, I knocked and knocked and no one came
So I kicked in his double-wide door
I let the hammer drop before he got
To that 12 he was reachin' for
I didn't try to hide my pistol
I didn't even try to run
I just sat on the porch, smokin' one
of his cigarettes
And waited for the cops to come

Chorus

      C#
Whoa oah (whoa)
               B   F#
Have mercy on me, Lord
              C#
Have mercy on me
              B           F#
Have mercy on me-e (hey), Lord

           C#
It's been sixty months and she still comes
    B                   F#
To see me from time to time
        C#
It was worth the price, to see a brighter side
        B                    A#m
Of the girl I picked up that night

       C#
And I might be here forever
          B              C#
It ain't paradise that's true
            C#
But it's a whole hell of a lot better
          B              F#
Than the place I sent him to, yeah
