This is my first tab attempt/submission...just trying to payback for all the good 
help i've received...hopefully this is close
(btw I capo the second fret)

C (x32010@1)                                GShe (320003@1)asked me to dance and then she paused
          C (x32010@1)                       Gshe (320003@1)was a neighborhood local at her local bar
     F (133211@1)                   Gwith (320003@1)shoulder length brown hair
              C (x32010@1)            Fand (133211@1)an accent I found fairly rare
C (x32010@1)              G (320003@1)            Cone (x32010@1)part country one part urban thug...total fox

C (x32010@1)                    GI (320003@1)was out of my element
C (x32010@1)                                 Gnew (320003@1)to the neighborhood and clearly lacking friends
     F (133211@1)           G (320003@1)                Cjust (x32010@1)adding to the mess of white ball caps
            Fand (133211@1)red keg cups
C (x32010@1)           G (320003@1)                Cdropping (x32010@1)home values and raising rent

C (x32010@1)                            GAfter (320003@1)the pause things became confusing
            C (x32010@1)                    Gshe (320003@1)asked "are you a real man or a college student?"
          F (133211@1)          GI (320003@1)did not know what to say 
            C (x32010@1)              F (133211@1)I'd started school that very day
         C (x32010@1)               G (320003@1)         Cwhich (x32010@1)is nothing but a big business I suppose

C (x32010@1)                               GRight (320003@1)then and there my heart did drop
    C (x32010@1)                               Gshe (320003@1)turned and walked away without a second thought
              F (133211@1)             GI (320003@1)should have listened to my dad
                 C (x32010@1)                        Fwhen (133211@1)he said "work with your hands not your head
         C (x32010@1)                G (320003@1)                          Cand (x32010@1)your billfold will stay full and you won't be paying out debt"

So men the purpose of this song

is to go ahead and pass my father's wisdom on

go on and callous up them hands

learns some knots and turn a wrench

cause in four years there won't be any jobs left anyway

If I'd taken my old man's advice

I might be laid up in the bed beside that fox tonight

instead my mouth tastes like jello shooters

and i'm lurking here on this darn computer

well man that's all i've got ... good night
