 IT WORKS                       
 written by Mickey Cates and Mark Alan Spencer
 performed by ALABAMA
 INTRO:  |D  D(9)  D|G  A  |D  D(9)  D|G  A  |
 VERSE 1                                    
    D                                        Gmaj7
 He rattles his glass, she jumps up fast and pours him a glass of tea
 Asus4                          A                          |D  |G
 Deep in her heart she believes that's the way it should be
     A(4)      |D                                 Gmaj7
 yeah, and I've seen my dad get fightin' mad over one little four-letter word
 Asus4                             A                  D                        
 he'll tell you fast you don't talk like that around her
 
 CHORUS:
 G                         A           D          A/C#          Bm   D/A
 We may not see it the way they see it we may not do it the way they do it
     Gmaj7                       A    D           A/C#       Bm
 but she lives here life for him      he'd gladly die for her  
   D/A             G         |A E A7  |
 and even in this modern age           it works
 
 VERSE 2:                                          
 Though he's been down in his back he still jumps out of that sack
 ev'ry mornin' at 5a.m. Having her home with the kids has been worth it to him
 yeah and she takes pride in bein' his wife and making their house a home
 and sometimes she wishes the world would just leave them alone
 
 [REPEAT CHORUS]
 
 BRIDGE
 
 |D |  A/C#| Bm                    G     A                 D
             If the good Lord's willin', there will come a day
   Bm               G         Asus4   |A D |
       When our children will say
                     
 [REPEAT CHORUS]          
               
    D A/C# Bm D/A          G          A E A7      D   |G A |Bm   |G Asus4 A|D
              Even in this modern age        it works
 
 Chords:
 D xx0232
 D(9)xx4230 or xx0230
 G 320003 or 320033
 A x02220
 Asus 4 x02230
 A(4) x00220
 A7 x02020
 A/C# x42220
 Bm x24432
 E 022100 
 
 I usually strum or pick the intro alternating between a D x00232 and a D(9) 
 x00230 and doing a G/B x20033 instead of regular G.  Also for the transition 
 with the chords A E A7 right together, I sometimes pick/slide up the D and B 
 strings at the 2nd fret, then to 4th (for Dstr) and 3rd (for Bstr) frets to 
 the 5th fret and that sounds alright.
