Kenny Chesney - The Good Stuff
G D/F# Em G/B C
INTRO
G D/F#
Well, me and my lady had our first big fight,
Em G/B
So I drove around 'til I saw the neon lights
C(add9) G/B Am A(add9) Am
Of a corner bar, and it just seemed right, so I pulled up.
G D/F#
Not a soul around but the old barkeep,
Em G/B
Down at the end and looking half asleep.
C(add9) G/B
But he walked up and said "What'll it be"?
Am G
I said "The good stuff".
C D
He didn't reach around for the whiskey,
C D
He didn't pour me a beer.
C D
His blue eyes kinda went misty,
Em D/F#
He said "You can't find that here.
G D/F#
'Cause it's the first long kiss on a second date,
Em G7
Momma's all worried when you get home late.
C G/B
And droppin' the ring in the spaghetti plate,
Am G/B C D
'Cause your hands are shakin' so much.
G D/F#
And it's the way that she looks with the rice in her hair,
Em G7
Eatin' burnt suppers the whole first year,
C G/B Am G/B C
And askin' for seconds to keep her from tearin' up.
D G D/F# C(add9)
Yeah man, that's the good stuff".
G D/F#
He grabbed a carton of milk and he poured a glass,
Em G/B
And I smiled and said "I'll have some of that".
C(add9) G/B Am
We sat there and talked as an hour passed like old friends.
G D/F#
Saw a black and white picture and he caught my stare,
Em G/B
It was a pretty girl with boufant hair,
C(add9) G/B Am G/B
He said "That's my Bonnie, taken about a year after we wed."
C D
He said "I spent five years in the bottle,
C D
When the cancer took her from me.
C D
But I've been sober three years now,
Am G/B C D
'Cause the one thing stronger than the whiskey,
G D/F#
Was the sight of her holdin' my baby girl.
Em G7
The way she adored that string of pearls
C G/B
I gave her the day that our youngest boy Earl
A G/B C D
Married his high school love.
G D/F#
And it's a new t-shirt sayin' I'm a Grandpa,
Em G7
Bein' right there as our time got small,
C G/B Am G/B C
And holdin' her hand when the Good Lord called her up.
D G D/F# C
Yeah man, that's the good stuff".
Solo/Instrumental

D D/F# G
He said when you get home she'll start to cry,
D D/F# G
When she says "I'm sorry", say: "So am I".
D/F# Em G/B C(add9)
And look into those eyes so deep in love...
D
And drink it up.
G D/F# C(add9)
'Cause that's the good stuff.
G D/F# C(add9)
That's the good stuff.
Into... goes pretty much the same through the 1st verse and whenever else it's played
G D/F# Em G/B C
