[G] I was sitting there Friday sucking on a glass of wine
[Bm]
When in walked this chick who almost struck me blind
Had wet blue eyes and her legs were long [C] and fine
On [D] a scale of one to ten I'd give her [G] nine
Now on my scale there ain't no tens [D] you know
Nine is about as far as any chick [G] can go
So I flashed her a smile but she didn't even look at [C] me
[C] [A]
So [D] for brains and good judgment I'd [G] give her a three
I said anything you'd look like a possible eight
You and me could make eighteen if your head's [G] on straight
She looked up and down my perfect [C] frame
[D] And said these words that burned into my [G] perfect brain
She said well another one of those macho petition [D] men
Trying to grade all women on scales of one to ten
And you give me an eight well that's a generous [C] thing to do
[D] Now let's just see just how much I give you
[A]
She said you coming on to me with that corn and numbers [E] jive
Your style makes me smile [E] I give it [A] a five
When you walked up I noticed that suit [Bm] of yours
[E] It's last year's double-lit freight cup give it [A] a four
That [A] must be your car parked out on [E] the curb
That 69 homemade convertible a [A] three and a third
As for that bill I guess you're less than [Bm] five
She said [E] for your pot belly I'd give that a ten [A] for size
That wine you're pouring might be fine [E] to you
But I'm used to fine champagne I give it [A] a two
It's hard to tell what your flashin' smile [Bm] is worth
[D]
[E] I give it a six you could use some [A] dental work
But it's a strutting rooster act that really makes [E] me laugh
It may be a ten to these country [A] hands but to me three and a half
And there really ain't much to add once the [D] subtraction's done
[Bm] And [E] since there ain't no zeroes I give you a [A] one
[A] She walked out while I was climbing down the [C#m] line
The whole bar was laughing saying Bear what happened to your nine
Nine says I, well since she started to [Bm] talk I knew
The chick [E] didn't have no class I barely gave her a [A] hook
Yeah no matter how good they look at first [D] there's flaws in all of them
[E] That's a wild scale of ten to one friend
There ain't [A] no tens
[N]
