G                                C 
I wouldn’t say I didn’t see her comin 
G                                                D 
A light that bright hard to miss in a place that dark 
G                                               C         
She said yes to a drink, while her fingers fumbled 
G                                                        D 
With a cross on a chain that was swinging above her heart 
C                                                    G 
When the morning sun set the midnight sky on fire 
C                                                  D 
She left me like a thief not knowing what she took 

         Em     C                      G 
I wish trouble always looked that good 
         Em     D                      G 
I wish trouble always looked that good 


I was still a little nervous when I got the courage to call 

That bright red number she’d written on the back of my hand 

A bottle of wine rode shotgun with a rose 

While I was drivin cross town, thinking bout turning back 

Now there’s a porch light burnin a hole right through my windshield 

There’s a silhouette standing at the screen door waitin for me. 


         Em      C                      G 
I wish trouble always looked that good 
         Em      D                      G 
I wish trouble always looked that good 

C                                                        G 
Now there’s a million reason’s not for me to go all in 
C                                                D 
Oh, but when she smiles I can’t even think of one 

Repeat Chorus
