A
Drunk again out on the front lawn
Bm                          D        E
Her dress pulled up and the moon is shinin'
A
I swear that girl's drunk up all of my tequila
Bm                                  D        E          F#m
I guess I better get her 'fore the trash man finds her, yeah

F#m  D             E        F#m
Long past when I'm dead and buried
D               E         F#m
She'll still be bangin' around
D          E      D
The girl I almost married

A
Met her in a bar when she was nineteen
Bm                         D     E
I was twenty-nine goin' on sixty-five
A
Said she knew a better way to get my kicks
Bm                              D     E       F#m
Now I'm stuck with her till the day I die, oh yeah

F#m  D             E        F#m
Long past when I'm dead and buried
D               E         F#m
She'll still be bangin' around
D          E      D
The girl I almost married

(bridge)
Bm                                E        Bm
And though I know she'll probably kill me
Bm                            D    E
I know I'd die if she weren't with me

A
This little girl's got the soul of an old man
    Bm                           D            E
She says life is short you gotta grab it with both hands
A
And if by chance we happen to go over
   Bm                              D           E     F#m
We spend all week in bed with the sweetest hangover, yeah

F#m  D             E        F#m
Long past when I'm dead and buried
D               E         F#m
She'll still be bangin' around
D          E      D
The girl I almost married
