Ring On Her Finger & Time On Her Hands - Lee Greenwood


Verse:1
F/C               C        F/C         C
She stood before God, Her family and friends,
    G6/D              D          G6/D          D         G
And vowed that she'd never, Love anyone else again, Only me,
   F/C          C             F/C              C
As pure as her gown of white, She stood by my side,
    G6/D            D       G6/D              D
And promised she'd love me, Till the day she died,
G5/C                 G   G5/C             G
Lord please forgive her, Even though she lied,
         C                                  D7
'Cause you're the only one who know's just how hard she tried.


Chorus:
           G5/G         G         G5/G          G
She had a, Ring on her finger and time and her hands,
      C6
The woman in her needed the warmth of a man,
     D7
The gold turned cold, In her wedding band,
            Ami                               D7             G
It's just a ring on your finger when there's time, On your hands.


Verse:2
       F/C               C                  F/C               C
When I add up all the countless nights, She cried herself to sleep,
    G6/D              D         G6/D             D
And all the broken promises, I somehow failed to keep,
          G
I can't blame her,
F/C              C            F/C         C
I'm the one who left her, Too many times alone,
     G6/G            D         G6/D             D
In a three bedroom prison, She tried to make a home,
F/C              C            F/C                C
Her love slowly died, But the fire inside still burned,
       F6/C        F                G7
In the arms of a stranger, was the only place left to turn.

                      - Repeat Chorus -
