Ok, I have redone my intro and and I going to try and tab this whole song. This
is how I have heard it by ear to play it so you either will like it or not like
it. It's up to you. I think it sound great. The only thing I don't have tabbed
here is the strumming. You can pretty much catch on to that if you just listen
to the song. I hope you like it!! Oh, yea in the intro the first chord you play
is a up stroke from high E to low E.
Chords used. Kind of a lot but that is what my ear hears. Have fun and PLEASE Comment Back

[ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/r/rascal-flatts/97385.html ]
G G/F# Em7 D
Tommy found his daddy’s gun And Joey had never seen one
G G/F# Em7 D
Real cowboy all dressed up As he held it in his hand
G G/F# Em7 D
Said, "You be good and I’ll be bad" Then he pulled the trigger back
G G/F# Em7 D G G/F#
Stopped little Tommy in his tracks And said, "Get up, man"
Em C D G
People came from miles to say goodbye To the Wilson’s youngest son
C2 G/B Dsus D
His innocent life had just begun
CHORUS
C9 D7 G C9 D7 G
It’s not supposed to go like that It’s not intended to end that way
Em C D G Em C
Life is a journey constantly turning Down an unknown path
Bflat A G
But it’s not supposed to go like that
REPEAT FIRST PART OF INTRO
G G/F# Em D
Jimmy had his daddy’s car And the keys to Jenny’s heart
G G/F# Em D
A fifth of whiskey on the floorboard Almost gone
G G/F# Em D
Havin’ the time of their life Had only one thing on their mind
G G/F# Em D G G/F#
Never saw the flashin’ lights Or the train comin’ on
Em C D G
Now there’s a wreath and two small crosses On the right side of the road
C2 G/B Dsus D
Reminders of a love that won’t grow
REPEAT CHORUS
C Cmaj9 Am Am7 D7 G
I wonder if guardian angels cry When they see it all played out
C Cmaj9 Bflat Dsus D
And as they stand with their hands tied Oh, do they cry out loud
Bflat A G Bflat A G
It’s not supposed to go like that No, it’s not supposed to go like that
G#maj A G G#maj A G
No, it’s not supposed to go like that No, it’s not supposed to go like that
G#maj C
No, no, no, it’s not supposed to go like that
Well, for my first tab I think I pretty much nailed it. Even if it isn't perfect,
it sounds great when you play it. Thanks for taking the time to try and learn
it. Please comment back and let me know what you think!
