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)
CG
She asked me to dance and then she paused
CG
she was a neighborhood local at her local bar
FG
with shoulder length brown hair
CF
and an accent I found fairly rare
CGC
one part country one part urban thug...total fox
CG
I was out of my element
CG
new to the neighborhood and clearly lacking friends
FGC
just adding to the mess of white ball caps
F
and red keg cups
CGC
dropping home values and raising rent
CG
After the pause things became confusing
CG
she asked "are you a real man or a college student?"
FG
I did not know what to say
CF
I'd started school that very day
CGC
which is nothing but a big business I suppose
CG
Right then and there my heart did drop
CG
she turned and walked away without a second thought
FG
I should have listened to my dad
CF
when he said "work with your hands not your head
CGC
and 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
