In downtown Modesto I was working the [Ab] holiday in.
I [Eb] was sitting with a gig that would last us throughout the [Bb] weekend.
I [Eb] was singing a new song I'd wrote on the way [Ab] into town.
[Eb] [Ab]
[Eb] When she came in the front door, [Bb] found her place, [Eb] she said,
Hey, I knew right away that she liked the words to [Ab] my song.
[Eb] I stared at the guitar, followed the fingers [Bb] too long.
[Eb] And she had the likeness of a girl I'd seen [Ab] in my dreams.
[Eb] But lights can do wonders with makeup [Bb] and [Eb] faded blue jeans.
And the last thing I needed was somebody messing [Ab] up my mind.
[Eb] So I found a hundred reasons for looking away [Bb] one more time.
[Eb] She could cause me to sing bad and fall out of love [Ab] with guitar.
And [Eb] blow all my chances at [Bb] being a big [Eb] singing star.
Then on the other hand, with one passing glance, I could tell she was young [Ab] for her age.
[Eb] Yeah, she got to looking better as she got down closer [Bb] to the stage.
[Eb] And as she sipped on her wine, I knew just the kind she would [Ab] be.
[Eb] Somehow I knew she was here [Bb] to do bad [Eb] things to me.
And the last thing I needed was somebody messing [Ab] up my [Eb] mind.
So [Eb] I found a hundred reasons for looking away [Bbm] one more [Bb] time.
[Eb] She could cause me to sing bad and fall out of love [Ab] with guitar.
And [Eb] blow all my chances at [Bb] being a big [Eb] singing star.
So let's play it.
Think about it.
[Ab]
[Eb]
[Bb] I was right.
She [Eb] could cause me to sing bad and fall out of love with [Ab] guitar.
[Eb] And blow all my chances at [Bb] being a big singing star.
