"Rita's Only Fault"

CAPO 2

G C G
She handled herself well, being handled by two guards
EM C G
And she still looked like a prom queen in the back of the sherriff's car
G C G
A crowd lined up from the courthouse to the jailhouse down the street
EM C G
How could they talk so bad, about a girl who was so sweet

D C G
Rita's heart turned to ice on a hot night in July
D C G
She did what she had to do, they don't believe the reasons why
C G C G
How he used her for a door mat, when he was sober enough to walk
EM C G
As far as I'm concerned, he was Rita's only fault

G C G
You Know I've always loved her, and one time she loved me too
EM C G
And that first love never let me go, the way that others do
G C G
She left me for the quarterback, I knew him back in school
EM C G
With a shiny car, a fast smile, but I always knew he was a fool

D C G
Rita's heart turned to ice on a hot night in July
D C G
She did what she had to do, they don't believe the reasons why
C G C G
How he used her for a door mat, when he was sober enough to walk
EM C G
As far as I'm concerned, he was Rita's only fault

G C G
Now I go to see her Sunday's, I see the tears in her eyes
EM C G
And I see the same sweet smile, that hell can't disguise
G C
If I'd've only known, well I'd have done him in myself
EM C G
I'd gladly take her place in that cold gray cell

D C G
Rita's heart turned to ice on a hot night in July

She did what she had to do, they don't believe the reasons why
C G C G
How he used her for a door mat, when he was sober enough to walk
EM C G
As far as I'm concerned, he was Rita's only fault

As far as I'm concerned, he was Rita's only fault
