DIVINE INTERVENTION
Jeff Carson
Intro: (A) (A)
If (A) I remember right, her name was Betty
We were (D) gradutatin' seniors, goin' steady
I was (E) hesitant to wed, but she was ready
For (A) Holy Matrimony, 'til (F#m) one night walkin' (E) home
She (A) stopped off at the Strike & Spare Diner
And lost her (D) heart to a transfer-truck driver
They had a (E) rollin' honeymoon to Carolina
I spent the (A) whole summer cussin' them
But, (F#m) lookin' back - it (E) must've been
Di(A)vine Intervention, that got (her/my) attention
It wasn't superstition or woman's intuition
I've (F#m) ruled out random chance
Destiny or circumstance
Bi(A)ology - astrology, it wasn't numerology
(E) Karma, Zeus, or Zen
Blowin' in the wind
The only ying-yang - galdang thing it coulda been
Was (A) Divine Intervention
Di(F#m)vine Intervention
After (A) six or seven years of near misses
Empty (D) promises and half-hearted kisses
I (E) met up lip to lip with my misses
She was (A) walkin' through the park
I said, (F#m) "Lord, there goes my (E) heart"
Repeat Chorus Twice
