A5
Drunk again out on the front lawn
B5                          D5        E5
Her dress pulled up and the moon is shinin'
A5
I swear that girl's drunk up all of my tequila
B5                                  D5        E5          F#5
I guess I better get her 'fore the trash man finds her, yeah

F#5  D5             E5        F#5
Long past when I'm dead and buried
D5               E5         F#5
She'll still be bangin' around
D5          E5      D5
The girl I almost married

A5
Met her in a bar when she was nineteen
B5                         D5     E5
I was twenty-nine goin' on sixty-five
A5
Said she knew a better way to get my kicks
B5                              D5     E5       F#5
Now I'm stuck with her till the day I die, oh yeah

F#5  D5             E5        F#5
Long past when I'm dead and buried
D5               E5         F#5
She'll still be bangin' around
D5          E5      D5
The girl I almost married

(bridge)
B5                                E5        B5
And though I know she'll probably kill me
B5                            D5    E5
I know I'd die if she weren't with me

A5
This little girl's got the soul of an old man
    B5                           D5            E5
She says life is short you gotta grab it with both hands
A5
And if by chance we happen to go over
   B5                              D5           E5     F#5
We spend all week in bed with the sweetest hangover, yeah

F#5  D5             E5        F#5
Long past when I'm dead and buried
D5               E5         F#5
She'll still be bangin' around
D5          E5      D5
The girl I almost married
