Blanket on the Ground (Maggie)
Billie Jo Spears
Intro:
[G] [G] [G*]
Verse 1:
[NC] Come and look out through the [G] window
That big old moon is shinin' [A] down
Tell me know don't it re[D]mind you
Of the blanket on the [G] ground?
Remember back when love first [G] found us,
We'd go slippin' out of [A] town
And we'd love beneath the [D] moonlight
On that blanket on the [G] ground...
|Chorus:
|[G7] I'll take the blanket from the [C] bedroom
|And we'll go walkin' once a[G]gain,
|To that spot down by the [D] river
|Where our sweet love first be[G]gan [G7]
|[G7] Just because we are [C] married,
|Don't mean we can't still go [G] round
|So let's walk beneath the [D] moonlight
|And lay the blanket on the [G] ground.
[Key Change to A]
Verse 2:
[A] Oh! Remember how ex[A]cited
We used to get when love was [B7] young,
That old moon was our best [E7] buddy,
We couldn't wait for night to [A] come.
Now you know you still ex[A]cite me
I know you love me like I [B7] am,
Just once more I wish you'd [E7] love me
On the blanket on the [A] ground...
|Chorus:
|[A7] I'll take the blanket from the [D] bedroom
|And we'll go walkin' once a [A] gain
|To that spot down by the [E7] river,
|Where our sweet love first be[A]gan. [A7]
|[A7] Just because we are [D] married,
|Don't mean we can't slip [A] around,
|So let's walk beneath the [E7] moonlight...
|And lay the blanket on the [A] ground...
Outro:
|[A7] Just because we are [D] married,
|Don't mean we can't slip [A] around,
|So let's walk beneath the [E7] moonlight...
|And lay the blanket on the [A] ground [D] [A*]
