Capo I Fret

Intro : (E) (C) (D) (A)

(E) Becky was a beauty from South Alabam'

Her (C) daddy had a heart like a 9-pound hammer

(D) Think he even did a little time in the slammer

(A7) What was I thinkin'

She (E) snuck out one night and met me by the front gate

Her (C) daddy came out wavin' that 12-gauge

(D) Tore out of the drive, he peppered my tailgate

(A7) What was I thinkin'

I (B5) knew there'd be hell to pay

But, that crossed my mind a little too (B) late

Cause I was (E) thinkin' 'bout a (Bm) little white (A) tank top

(G) Sittin' right (E) there in the (Bm) middle by (A) me

I was (E) thinkin' 'bout a (Bm) long kiss

(A) Man just (G) gotta get

(E) Goin' where the (D) night might (A) lead

I (B5) know what I was feelin' (D) (A)

But, what was I th(E)inkin' (C) (D) (A)

By the (E) county line, the cop's were nippin' on my heels

(C) Pulled off the road, kicked it in 4-wheel

(D) Shut off the lights, tore through a corn field

(A7) What was I thinkin'

From the (E) other side, she was hollerin' "faster"

(C) Took a dirt road, had the radio blastin'

(D) Hit the honky tonk for a little close dancin'

(A7) What was I thinkin'

Oh, I (B) knew there'd be hell to pay

But, that crossed my mind a little too (E) late

Repeat Chorus

Solo: (E5) (F#) (B7) (F#) (C) (D) (E5) (E5)

When a (E) mountain of a man with a 'Born To Kill' tattoo

Tr(C)ied to cut in, I knocked out his front tooth

(D) Ran outside, hood-slidin' like Bo Duke

(A7) What was I thinkin'

(E) Finally got her home at half past 2 - late

Her (C) daddy, in a lawn chair, sittin' on the driveway

(D) Put it in park, and he started my way

(A7) What was I thinkin'

Oh...(G) what was I thinkin'

(C) What was I thinkin'

Then she (B5) gave a come-and-get-me grin

Like a bullet, we were gone a(B)gain

Repeat Chorus

(Ad lib and fade out...)
