Lyrics

[Intro]
| Bb Dm | Gm Dm | Eb Bb |

[Verse 1]
Eb C7 F
       Well,
    Bb            Dm            Gm
she wants to be a singer in the band
           Dm              Eb
Maybe I'll give the girl a hand
         Bb
And a microphone
Eb         C7       F
Looks like she's all alone
Bb              Dm
She can bring a friend
                Gm           Dm
Though she's not  my kind of friend
             Eb            Bb
She keeps on staring me out
        Eb   C7     F         Bb  Dm
With her  ole  black and blue eyes

[Pre-Chorus]
Gm Dm Eb Bb Eb C7
F     Bb             Dm
 And I  can take her dancing

[Verse 2]
        Gm              Dm
Just to give the girl a chance and
      Eb             Bb
I was never that good
         Eb        C7      F
At being nice when I should
  Bb                   Dm
I guess that she'll forgive me
        Gm                Dm
Right before she tries to kill me
         Eb             Bb
'Cause I sold her on yesterday's
Eb     C7    F         Bb  D7 Gm Bb7 Eb
  "Come  take me home" eyes

[Verse 3]
F     Bb             Dm
 And I  can take her waltzing
        Gm                Dm
Just so she could kick my head in
      Eb          Bb
Oh, I do believe I  was drunk
    Eb      C7      F
And both of my heads had shrunk
  Bb                 Dm
I guess her name was Tina
         Gm            Dm
'Cause before I'd even seen her
      Eb                 Bb
I was lost in her "What's
          Eb    C7   F           Bb  D7 Gm Bb7 Eb
your name?  Just  get me fucked" eyes

[Pre-Chorus]
F                   Bb  D7 Gm Bb7 Eb
 "Oh, take me home" eyes

[Chorus]
F    Bb          Bb/A      Gm    Dm         Eb
 And Chelsea says    she's got nowhere to go
And if she does,
      Bb                F
she's getting there slow
          Bb
And I can help her out,
Bb/A         Gm      Dm         Eb
    but I've got somewhere to be
                    Bb                 F         Bb Eb Bb F Bb Ebm
And that's the very thing when your dealing with me

[Break]
                  | Bb F |

[Bridge]
Bb         Eb7
Young soul shagger,
Bb            Eb7
begging me to bag her
Bb               Eb7
Filthy heart and swollen hips
F
 And she said, "Oh, my dearest,
Bb      Eb7     Bb         Eb7
I'm not pretty, isn't it a pity
     Bb                   Eb7
That you won't kiss these rotten lips?"
F                   Bb  D7 Gm Bb7 Eb
 "Oh, take me home" eyes

[Break]
F                   Bb  D7 Gm Bb7 Eb
 Ole black and blue eyes

[Chorus]
F
F7    Bb          Bb/A      Gm    Dm         Eb
  And Chelsea says    she's got nowhere to go
And if she does,
      Bb                F
she's getting there slow
          Bb
And I can help her out,
Bb/A         Gm      Dm         Eb
    but I've got somewhere to be
                    Bb                 F         Bb Dm
And that's the very thing when your dealing with me
