(verse) 
E 
Becky was the beauty from south Alabama, 
    C 
Her daddy had a heart like a nine pound hammer, 
   D 
I think he even did a little time in the slammer, 
A 
What was I thinkin' 
 
(verse 2) 
E 
She snuck out one night and met me by the front gate, 
    C 
Her daddy came out a wavin' that twelve guage, 
   D 
we tore out of the drive, he peppered my tailgate, 
A 
What was I thinkin' 
 
(bridge) 
B 
Oh I knew there'd be hell to pay, 
B 
But that crossed my mind a little too late, 
 
(Chorus) 
            E                D            A 
Cause I was thinkin' 'bout a little white tank top, 
G             E             D         A 
Sittin' right there in the middle by me, 
      E                D           
I was thinkin' 'bout a long kiss, 
A             G 
Man I gotta get, 
E               D            A 
Goin' where the night might lead, 
B                        D - D - A - A 
I know what I was feelin'  
                       E - C - D - A - D - A 
But, what was I thinkin' 
 
(verse 3) 
 
By the county line, the cop's were nippin' on my heels 

Pulled off the road, kicked it in four-wheel 

Shut off the lights, tore through a corn field 

What was I thinkin' 
 
(verse 4)
