My Lady

---
[Intro – Spoken over guitar]
"Backroads of Virginia raised her, but love made her home... and I’m damn lucky to be that."
---
[Verse 1 – Sung, light twang]
[A]
She’s got Richmond roots and a heart like June
[E]
Talks soft, but she’ll snap like a cracked monsoon
[F#m]
She feels too much, don’t sleep too well
[D]
Carries ghosts she won’t ever tell
[A]
But she’s got a smile that makes Lynchburg blush
[E]
And a voice that calms when the world’s too much
[F#m]
Her love runs deep like the James at night
[D]
And I thank the stars she chose this life
---
[Chorus – Bigger, harmonies kick in]
[A]
She’s still fire in the fall, still gold in the fields
[E]
Still the girl in my truck with her hand on the wheel
[F#m]
Still dreams of land where the tall grass grows
[D]
And I love her now, yeah, right here the most
[A]
She’s my north star when the road gets close
[E]
The laugh in the kitchen, the pull to my coast
[F#m]
She was, she is, and wherever she goes
[D]
I love who she’ll be—but right here the most
---
[Verse 2 – Half-sung, Upchurch-style drawl]
[A]
Wants chickens and goats on Goochland land
[E]
With a wraparound porch and a calloused hand
[F#m]
She’ll save the strays, she’ll split the wood
[D]
She don’t ask for much, but she damn well should
[A]
She's got that balance—real talk, soft soul
[E]
Laughs at my dumb jokes, still makes me whole
[F#m]
She fears she’s fallin’ short as a mom
[D]
But I see the queen that our girls lean on
---
[Chorus – Full, loud, with pride]
[A]
She’s still fire in the fall, still gold in the fields
[E]
Still the girl in my truck with her hand on the wheel
[F#m]
Still dreams of land where the tall grass grows
[D]
And I love her now, yeah, right here the most
[A]
She’s my north star when the road gets close
[E]
The laugh in the kitchen, the pull to my coast
[F#m]
She was, she is, and wherever she goes
[D]
I love who she’ll be—but right here the most
---
[Bridge – Spoken, mellow guitar]
"From muddy boots in Powhatan, to bedtime stories and burnt toast...
She’s been the backbone of this house, and the best part of me."
---
[Final Chorus – Stripped down, then swells]
[A]
She’s still fire in the fall, still gold in the fields
[E]
Still the girl in my heart I can’t believe is real
[F#m]
Still the dream I’d chase through any backroad ghost
[D]
And I love her now... right here the most
---
[Outro – Gentle strum fadeout]
"Virginia bred, heaven sent...
She don’t know it, but she saved me."

Southern country-rap anthem with gritty vocals, swampy guitars, and pride in roots—loyal to backwoods
