[intro]
[G] [D]
[Opening]
A young boy needs a place to [D]sit and wait
Cause she ain’t ever ready [G]for the date
That girl’s daddy needs a [A]quiet spot
To tell that boy the What’s, [D]and what nots
[section 2]
Someday soon he’s gonna [D]bring her home
To sit on the swing with that [G]light bulb on
He’ll reach in the pocket of his [A]old blue jeans
Pull out a ring, get [D]down on one knee
[section 3]
That’s why God made a [G]front porch
And put a little creak in the [Bm]screen door
Something about the sound of a [G]G-chord
Foot tapping on a [A]loose board
Moon dancing behind the [G]willow tree
You can hear that bullfrog clear [Bm]across the creek
When that old house gets a [G]little worn [A]o|.
That’s why God made a [G]front porch
[section 4]
Step over my old dog and [D]head to work
Put in a full day ’til [G]my back hurts
As fast as this world goes [A]around and ’round
Everybody needs a place [D]to slow down
[section 5]
And as my tires hit the [D]gravel drive
The summer sun’s hanging on [G]for dear life
As my little angel in her [A]sun dress
Sitting cross legged, on the [D]wood steps
[section 6]
That’s why God made a [G]front porch
And put a little creak in the [Bm]screen door
Something’ ’bout the sound of a [G]G-chord
Foot tapping on a [A]loose board
Wind chimes jangle in the [G]evening breeze
You can hear that bullfrog clear [Bm]across the creek
A peaceful rainfall follows a [G]thunderstorm [A]
That’s why God made a [G]front porch [D]
[section 7]
Full moon dancing behind the [G]willow tree
You can hear that bullfrog clear [Bm]across the creek
When that old house gets a [G]little warm [A]
That’s why God made a [G]front porch [D]
[Closing]
That’s why God made a [G]front porch [D]
