F                             C
   Which ones the birthday boy?
                  Am                 G
she said I ain't got all night
What'd your mama name you?
You can call me what you like
Every skinny mystery gotta make it hard somehow
Sit your narrow ass down hot shot
I'll solve yours right now

You got a girlfriend don't you boy?
Nervous hands cant lie
Married men don't ask how much, single ones ain't buying
One day you got everything, next day it's all broke
Let miss Trixie sit up front
Let her wipe your nose(HOLD G FOR 2 BARS)

Fsus4                                                 F
Working for the money like you got eight hands
C                              G
Flat on your back under a mean old man
Fsus4                          F                                         C
just thinking happy thoughts and breathing deep
Dm                                     Am          G
Between your mama's drive and daddy's belt
F     C                                       Am                     G
It don't take smarts to learn to tune out what hurts more than helps

The pretty girls from the smallest towns
get remembered like storms and droughts
that old men talk about for years to come
I guess that's why they give us names
F              C                Am
so a few old men can say they so us rain
                 G                     Am     G  
when we were young

Which ones the birthday boy?
she said I aint got all night
What'd your mama name you?
You can call me what you like
