She Don't Tell Me To
“Montgomery Gentry”
Done by the Jetman
Intro: D G (2x)
D
Every now an' then, on my home,
G D
I stop at a spot where the wild flowers grow, an' I pick a few,
G
'Cause she don't tell me to.
V-1:
D
I go out with my boys all right,
G D
Most of the time I call it a night before they do,
G
'Cause she don't tell me to.
D
Sunday mornin', I'm in church,
G D
An' my butt an' my back an' my necktie hurt, but I'm in the pew,
G
She don't tell me to.
Refrain:
D
Any other woman I know would have tried,
C
To control me and it would be over.
D A-A7
Blame it on my goin' on my own way attitude.
D
All of that stubbornness melts away,
G
When I wake with her head on my shoulder,
C
An' I know I've got to love her,
Em C
Until my life is through,
D G
'Cause she don't tell me to.

V-2:
D
Well, I got demons and I've got pride,
G D
But when I'm wrong, I apologize like she's mine to lose,
G
'Cause she don't tell me to.
D
Well, I got dreams in this heart of mine,
G D
But nothin' that I wouldn't lay aside if she asked me to.
G
'Cause she don't tell me to.
D
An' she don't, even know,
G D
That she keeps me lookin' for the next right thing to do,
G
'Cause she don't tell me to.
D A-A7
Yeah, yeah.
Refrain:
D
Any other woman I know would have tried,
C
To control me and it would be over.
D A-A7
Blame it on my goin' on my own way attitude.
D
All of that stubbornness melts away,
G
When I wake with her head on my shoulder,
C
An' I know I've got to love her,
Em
Until my life is through,
C
What else can I do? What else can I do?
Em
Whoa, I love her,
D G
'Cause she don't tell me to.
D G
She don't tell me to.
