Standard Tuning

Really easy song. The basic pattern is G and C or Cadd9, which is what I prefer.


G       C                             G          C
Get back on track, pick me up some bottles of booze
G                 C                         G     C
Fickle freshman probably thinks he's cooler than you
    G                C                 G      C
A hay ride, a fire, everybody's coming around
     G         C                           G      C
So go press your skirt, word is there's a new girl in town
G                C                    G        C
I call shotgun, you can play your R 'n' B tunes
        G             C                     G      C
The fellowship time, it always comes a little too soon
        G        C                              G         C
The land of the creeps freshened up and baby faced shaved
      G                   C                   G             C
Put your eyes on me and I know a place where we can get away
   G             C                                G           C
Just say I want you, just exactly like I used to
  G     C                        G        C
'Cause baby this is o-nly bringing me down

(Same pattern throughout the rest of the song)

Homeboy's so proud, he finally got the video proof

The night vision shows she was only ducking the truth

It's heavy I know, the black eye with the gift down below

A choke and a gag, she spit up and came back for more

And said I want you just exactly like I used to

And baby this is only bringing me down

She said I want you

I want you just exactly like I used to

And baby this is only bringing me down

I said I want you just exactly like I used to

And baby this is only bringing me down
