In downtown Modesto I was workin’ the Holiday Inn
C
G7
I was set with a gig that would last us though out the weekend
C
F
I was singing a new song I wrote on the way into town
C
G7
C
When she came in the front door I found her a place to sit down
F
Hey I knew right away that she liked the words to my song
C
G7
Cause she stared at the guitar followed my fingers too long
C
F
And she had the likeness of a girl I’d seen in a dream
C
G7
C
But lights can do wonders with makeup and faded blue jeans
F
And the last thing I needed was somebody messin’ up my mind
C
G7
So I found a hundred reasons for lookin’ away one more time
C
F
She could cause me to sing bad and fall out of love with guitars
C
G7
C
And to blow all my chances at bein’ a big singin’ star
F
With one passin’ glance I could tell she was young for her age
C
G7
Yeah she got to lookin’ better as she got down closer to the stage
C
F
And as she sipped on her wine I knew just the kind she would be
C
G7
C
And somehow I knew she was here to do bad things to me
F
And the last thing I needed was somebody messin’ up my mind
C
G7
So I found a hundred reasons for lookin’ away one more time
C
F
She could cause me to sing bad and fall out of love with guitars
C
G7
C
And to blow all my chances at bein’ a big singin’ star
F
And fall out of love with guitars
C
G7
C
And blow all my chances at bein’ a big singin’ star
