Intro: D  

Verse: 
D 
Jayton had a job for seven bucks an hour  

At the fillin' station by the water tower 
       A 
Just checkin' oil and fixin' flats 
 G                                       D 
The kind of kid most folks just look past 
 
D 
Jill was the local preacher's kid gone wild 

Most the time her daddy couldn't stand his own child  
 A 
He'd quote the scripture with an angry shout 
     G                                              D                       
And list her all the reasons she would never turn out 

G D She was drunk one night on the fourth of July A Bm Parked in a pasture with an out-of-town guy G D He got mad when she said no Em G And he tore her Sunday dress G D She was wanderin' alone on a county road A Bm When the lights came over the hill G A D That was the moment when Jayton met Jill
Verse: D He said hey, do you need a ride home She said go away, leave me alone A But he noticed the bruise and the frightened tears G D Said there ain't no way in Hell I'm leavin' you out here D It was rainin' a little and fixin' to storm And his mustang jacket looked dry and warm A So she let him wrap it 'round her and she climbed inside G D Sayin' OK I guess thanks for the ride
G D At an all-night diner they waited out the storm A Bm Ended up talking right up 'til dawn G D By the time he dropped her off safe at home Em G Neither one felt so alone G D Two lost souls found a connection A Bm that's blessin' both of them still G A D On that night when Jayton met Jill
G D A Bm G D Em G
G D And what Jayton never told her about that night A Bm Is how he'd taken his dad's old 45 G D He'd been drivin' 'round thinkin' how no one would miss him Em G If he just ended it all G D He couldn't see past his own pain A Bm 'Til he saw a pretty girl walkin' in the rain G Thank God he made it over that hill G A D That was the moment when Jayton met Jill
Final: G A D
