THE BABY 
(Blake Shelton) 
  
 
(E) My (E/G#) brother (A) said that I (B7) was rotten to the (E) core 
I (E/G#) was the (A) youngest child, (F#m) so I got by with (B7) more 
(E) I guess (E/G#) she was (A) tired by, (B7) the time I came (E) along 
She'd (E/G#) laugh until (A) she cried, (F#m) I could do no (B7) wrong 
(F#m) She would always save me (B7) 
Because I was her (E) baby 
  
I worked a (C#m) factory in Ohio 
A (A) shrimp boat in the buyou 
(E) Drove a truck in Birming(B7)ham 
Turned twenty-(C#m)one in Cincinatti 
(A) Called home to mom and daddy 
(E) Said, your boy's now a (B7) man 
She said I (F#m) don't care if you're 80 
(B7) You'll always be my (E) baby 
  
She (E/G#) loved that (A) photograph (B7) of our whole fami(E)ly 
She'd (E/G#) always (A) point us out, (F#m) for all her friends to (B7) see 
(E) "That's (E/G#) Greg, he (A) doing great - (B7) he really loves his (E) job 
Ron(E/G#)nie with (A) his two kids, (F#m) how 'bout that wife he's (B7) got 
And (F#m) that one's kinda crazy (B7) 
But, that one is my baby" 
  
I got a (C#m) call in Alabama 
Said, "come on (A) home to Louisiana 
(E) And come as fast as you can (B7) fly 
Cause your (C#m) mama really needs you 
She (A) says she's gotta see you 
(E) She might not make it through the (B7) night" 
(F#m) The whole way I drove 80 (B7) 
So she could see her (E) baby 
  
She (C#m) looked like she was sleeping - 
And my (A) family had been weeping 
(E) By the time that I got to her (B7) side 
I (C#m) knew that she'd been taken 
And my (A) heart it was breakin' 
(E) I never got to say good(B7)bye 
I (F#m) softly kissed that lady 
(B7) And cried just like a (E) baby
