G D Em C
[Verse 1]
G D
I was young and single glad that i was free
Em C
had my whole life ahead there was nothin stoppin me
G D
headed out to vegas me and all my friends
Em C
just a bunch of clowns runnin round in a town of sin
Am C/B C
ten shots later and one double dare
Am C/B C D
met a girl and said i do in some chapel out there
[Chorus]
G Em
That was the best mistake ive ever made the lord works in mysterious ways
C D
i chose the wrong path all my life but for once i did somethin right
G Em
and just one look at her and i see someone smiling down on me
C C/B Am C/B C D G D
and im not too proud to say that was the best mistake ive ever made
[Verse 2]
G D
Tryin to start a family was the last thing we had planned
Em C
Till i came home from work she had her head in her hands
G D
i could see the worry through the tear drops in her eyes
Em C
she said how we gonna do this when we're barely gettin by
Am C/B C
we weren't prepared for all those changes in our world
Am C/B C D
that all changed when the doctor said its a girl
[Chorus]
G Em
That was the best mistake ive ever made the lord works in mysterious ways
C D
i chose the wrong path all my life but for once i did somethin right
G Em
and just one look at her and i see someone smiling down on me
C C/B Am C/B C D G D
and im not too proud to say that was the best mistake ive ever made
