Title: The Good Stuff

Written By: Craig Wiseman/Jim Collins

Intro:

G D/F# Em D C C

Verse:

G D/F#

Well me and my lady had our first big fight

Em D

So I drove around 'til I saw the neon lights

C C/B Am7

Of a corner bar, and it just seemed right, so I pulled up

G D/F#

Not a soul around but the ol' barkeep

Em D

Down at the end lookin half asleep

C C/B Am7

But he walked up and said what'll it be, I said the good stuff

C/B C D C D

He didn't reach around for the whiskey, He didn't pour me a beer,

C D

His blue eyes kinda went misty,

Em

He said you can't find that here

Chorus:

/F# G D/F#

Cause it's the first long kiss on a second date

Em G

Mamma's all worried when you get home late

C C/B

And droppin the ring in the spaghetti plate,

Am C/B C D

Cause your hands are shaking so much

G D/F#

And it's the way she looks with rice in her hair

Em G

Eatin burnt suppers the whole first year

C C/B Am C/B C

And askin for seconds, to keep her from tearin up,

D G D/F# C C

Yeah man that's the good stuff

Verse:

He grabbed a carton of milk and he poured a glass

I smiled and said I'll have some of that

We sat there and talked as an hour passed like ol' friends

Saw a black and white picture and it caught my stare

Was a pretty girl with bouffant hair

He said that's my Bonnie, takin bout a year after we wed

He said I spent five years in the bottle when the cancer took her from me

I've been sober three years now,

Am C/B C D

Cause the one thing stronger than the whiskey, It was...

Chorus:

The sight of her holdn our baby girl

The way she adored that string of pearls

I gave her the day that our youngest boy Earl

Married his high school love

And it's a new T-shirt sayin I'm a Grandpa

Being right there as our time got small

And holding her hand, when the good lord called her up

G D/F# C~~>

Yeah man that's the good stuff

Solo:

~~> C G D/F# C C

Bridge:

D G

He said when you get home she'll start to cry

D G

When she says I'm sorry, say so am I

G D/F# Em D C

And look into those eyes so deep in love

D

And drink it up

G D/F# C C

Cause that's the good stuff

G D/F# C C C~~~

That's the good stuff
