[D] [Gm] [Dm] [G]
[Gm] [C] [G] [C]
[G] [D] [G]
Well, I used to be heavy, but now [Gm] I'm thin
My belly hung over now my chest [G] caves in
Eyes are glassy and my britches [D] fit me right
[Gm]
[G] Feet are still long and my hair [Gm] is too
You don't have to know how far I can get [G] through
I won't [D] be a fat [G] boy anymore
Well, I couldn't play ball cause I couldn't run fast
Never got dates cause I never got ass
Couldn't jump high or walk [D] around too long
[Gm] [G] Couldn't talk much about the women I [Gm] had
Friends talked about them made me feel [G] real bad
I [D] won't be a fat boy [G] anymore
Well, girls would tell me that my eyes [Gm] was blue
Sometimes told me [Em] theirs was [G] too
Said I was funny and sweet as their [D] mama's [Gm] pie
[G] For many long years I hardly ever got [Gm] laid
Now on old Tammy Taff the [G] dues have been paid
I won't [D] be a fat [G] boy anymore
[Gm] [C] [G]
[D] [Gm]
[G] [C] [Gm]
[C] [G] [D]
[G] Well, I used to go drinking and look for my bride
I'd walk into parties and the girls would hide
They didn't want no fat [D] boys in there
[Gm] They [G] always used to tell me we could be good [C] friends
And you'd sleep [Gm] on the pallet where the [G] party ends
I [D] won't be a fat boy [G] anymore
Now I got a little woman that I kiss [Gm] each day
She likes my love in some [G] of my ways
I'm glad I'm not a fat [D] boy anymore
[Gm] [G] Her hair's real curly and her eyes real [Gm] brown
She rubs my belly when I'm laying [G] down
I won't [D] be a fat [G] boy anymore
Yeah, I used to be heavy but now I'm [Gm] thin
[C] And my [G] belly hung over now my chest caves in
My thighs are glassy and my britches [D] fit me right
[Gm] My [G] feet are still long and my [Gm] hair is too
You don't have to know, cause I [G] can
I [D] won't be a fat [G] boy anymore
No, I [D] won't be a fat [G] boy anymore
