In downtown Modesto, I was working the Holiday Inn
E B7
I was sick with a gig that would last us throughout the weekend
E E7 A7
I was singing a new song I'd wrote on the way into town
E B7 E7
When she came in the front door and found her a place to sit down
E A7 A
Hey, I knew right away that she liked the words to my song
E B7
Cause she stared at my git guitar and followed my fingers too long
E E7 A7
And she had the likeness of a girl I had seen in my dreams
E B D B
But lights can do wonders with make-up and faded blue jeans
E A G D A
And the last thing I needed was somebody messing up my mind
E B7
So I found a hundred reasons for looking away one more time
E A
She could cause me to sing bad and fall out of love with guitar
E B E
And blow all my chances at being a big singing star
E
But on the other hand, on the other hand what
E A7 A
With one passing glance, I could tell she was young for her age
E B7
Yeah she got to looking better as she got down closer to the stage
E A
And as she sipped on her wine, I knew just the kind she would be
E B E
And somehow I knew she was here to do bad things to me
E A G D A
And the last thing I needed was somebody messing up my mind
E B B7
So I found a hundred reasons for looking away one more time
E E7 A
She could cause me to sing bad and fall out of love with guitar
E B E
And blow all my chances at being a big singing star
E
Lets play this, think about it
B7
I was right (yeah you were)
E E7 A
She could cause me to sing bad and fall out of love with guitar
E B E7 E
And blow all my chances at being a big singing star
