I was sitting there Friday sucking on a glass of [Eb] wine
When he walked this chick who almost struck [Ab] me blind
Had wet blue eyes and her [Fm]
legs were long [Db] and fine
[Eb] On a scale of one to ten I'd give her [Ab] a nine
Now on my scale there ain't no tens [Eb] you know
Nine is about as far as any chick [Ab] can go
So I blast her a smile but she didn't even look at [Db] me
[Bb]
[Eb] So for brains and good judgment [B]
I'd give her [Ab] a three
I said hey, ain't anything you look like a [Eb] possible eight
You and me could make eighteen if your head's [F] on straight
[Ab] She looked up and down my [Db] perfect brain
And
[Eb] said these words that burned into my [Ab] perfect brain
You said well another one of those macho, [Eb] matrician men
Can't degrade all women on scales of one [Ab] to ten
Well that's a generous [Db] thing to do
[Eb] Now let's just see just how much I [Ab] give you
She
[F]
said you [Bb] coming on to me with that corny numbers [F] jive
Your style makes me smile, I give it a five
When you walked up I noticed that [Eb] suit of yours
[C] It's last year's double [F] net break cup, give it four
[Bb] Now that must be your car [F] parked out [Fm] on the curb
[F] That 69 homemade convertible, a three and a third
Now as for [Bb] that bill, I guess you're [Cm] less than five
[F] Except for your [C] heart belly I'd give that a [Bb] ten for size
That wine you're pouring might be fine to [Dm] you
But I'm used to fine champagne, I [Bb] give it a two
It's hard to tell what your flashy [Cm] smiles were
[Eb]
[Dm] I'd give it [F] a six if you could do some dental [Bb] work
[Eb] [Bb] Why it's a strange little rooster act that really makes [Dm] me laugh
It may [F] be a ten to these country hands [Bb] but to me three and a half
And there really ain't much to add once the [Cm] subtraction's done
And since [C] there ain't no zeroes [B] I'll give [F] you a one
[Bb]
[E] [Bb] She walked out a while up and down [Dm] the line
The whole bar was laughing saying, fam what [Bb] happened to your nine
Nine says I, well soon she started to [Cm] talk I knew
The [F] chick didn't have no class I barely gave her [Bb] a two
Yeah no matter how good they look at first [Eb] there's flaws in all of them
[F] That's a wild scale of ten to one, friend
There ain't [Bb] no ten
[E]
