Keep The Girl-Jason Aldean
capo on 3rd fret
standard tuning
Cadd9 D X2 (hand muted)
Cadd9 D
This life is full of choices,
Cadd9 D
Hard to make one all the voices,
G D/F# Em7 D (this line picked)
In my head,
Cadd9 D
Those blue eyes I'm in love with,
Cadd9 D
Or that highway which ever I pick,
G D/F# Em7 D (picked)
There'll be regrets,
Cadd9 D
I go one way I lose everything,
Cadd9 D (once)
I go the other way same thing,
(Chorus)
G D/F#
I'm torn and it's tearing me apart,
Em7 Cadd9
I want to go but I don't want to break her heart,
G D/F#
Like a sword with a double edge blade,
Em7 Cadd9
It's gonna cut deep either way,
Em7 D
This little town that big old world,
Em7 D
Chase the dream or keep the girl,
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/j/jason_aldean/keep_the_girl_crd_ver_2.html ]
Cadd9 D
More than once I packed it all up,
Cadd9 D
But I break down blame it on the truck,
G D/F# Em7 D
Just couldn't go,
Cadd9 D
Just wanna be out there making my mark,
Cadd9 D
Lay down every night in her arms,
(Chorus)
G D/F#
I'm torn and it's tearing me apart,
Em7 Cadd9
I want to go but I don't want to break her heart,
G D/F#
Like a sword with a double edge blade,
Em7 Cadd9
It's gonna cut deep either way,
Em7 D
This little town that big old world,
Em7 D
Chase the dream or keep the girl,
G D/F# Em C x2
Cadd9 D
I don't know why I can't have it all,
Cadd9 D
Need to tear down that wall,
Cadd9 D
Between this little town that big old world,
Cadd9 D
Go chase my dream and keep the girl,
(Chorus)
G D/F#
I'm torn and it's tearing me apart,
Em7 Cadd9
I want to go but I don't want to break her heart,
G D/F#
Like a sword with a double edge blade,
Em7 Cadd9
It's gonna cut deep either way,
Em7 D
This little town that big old world,
Em7 D
Chase the dream or keep the girl,
G D/F# Em C (repeated until you're done)
I want it all,
Keep the girl,
He
