E5 
Down in Beaumont, they're two-steppin'  
E5 
Out in Bakersfield it's a honky tonk heaven  
  A5                                                E5 
I hear the coast of Carolina, they still twist and shout  
     B5                   A5              B5         E5  
This Okie dance floor is jumpin', let's figure it out 
 
There's a whole lot that I don't understand  

Like how the MC squared between a woman and a man  

Makes enough electricity to light up Tulsa downtown  

But baby, we could spend a couple hours trying to figure it out

                     A5 
Trying to figure out what was going on between Adam and Eve  
E5                       
Johnny and June, James Dean and Natalie  
    A5 
The who and why and what about a thing called love  
        B5 
How you got to break it in before it fits you like a glove  
        E5                                                    A5 
I got a couple thousand questions I been meaning to ask you about  
          B5    
And we've got a little time to kill  
A5           B5         E5 
Baby, let's figure it out.

Acoustic Solo 
 
Chorus 2: 
Trying to figure out what was going on between Adam and Eve  
Johnny and June, Priscilla and the King  
The who and why and what about a thing called love  
How you got to break it in before it fits you like a glove.  
 
 
Well, love will take you high or it will leave you real low  
You can stir it into magic, if you stir it kinda slow  
It's the chemistry that's in between you and me I'm talking about  
And we've got a little time to kill  
Honey, let's figure it out  
 
Baby ain't no telling how long it takes to figure it out
