Garth Brooks - Callin' Baton Rouge
From "In Pieces" (1993)
(Dennis Linde)
INTRO: [D]
[Bm]I spent last [A]night in the arms of a [G]girl in Louisi[D/F#]ana
And [A]though I'm out on the [D]highway my [G]thoughts are still with [A]her [D]
[Bm]Such a strange [A]combination of a [G]woman and a [D/F#]child
[A]such a strange [D]situation stoppin' [G]every hundred miles [A]callin' Baton [D]Rouge
[Bm] A replay [A]of last night's e[G]vents roll through my [D/F#]mind
[A] Except a [D]scene or two e[G]rased by sweet red [A]wine [D]
[Bm] And I see a [A]truck stop sign a[G]head so I change [D/F#]lanes
[A]I need a cup of [D]coffee and a [G]couple dollars change [A]callin' Baton [D]Rouge
CHORUS
[D]Operator won't you put me on through
I gotta send my love down to Baton Rouge
[D]Hurry up won't you put her on the line
I gotta talk to the girl just one more time
INSTRUMETNAL: [G] [A] [G] [A]
BRIDGE:
[D]Hello Samantha [D/C#]dear, I [Bm]hope you're feelin' [A]fine [Bm] [C#]
[D]And it won't be [D/C#]long until [Bm]I'm with you all [A]the time
But until [G]then I'll spend my [A]money
up right [D]down to my last [G]dime [A]callin' Baton [D]Rouge
CHORUS
