(Verse 1)
I was (G)fishinf down the road with my buddy Tank
He (G)reeled in a bass he caught off the bank
It (G)wasnft real big, so we threw it on back
And we (G)headed on home ecause we barely caught jack
(G)Couple hours later heard him tellinf the guys
How he (G)pulled him in a fish, couldfve won him first prize
He (G)caught so many that his pole got broke
Had to (G)listen to him poppinf off and blowinf that smoke

(Pre-Chorus)
He (D)had eem all goinf, he was basking in the glory
I guess you (G)never let the facts ruin a good story

(Chorus)
Some (C)people make it up as th„uy go along
They (G)pour it on thick, yeah they lay it on strong
You (D)add a littl„u polish so it never gets boring
Nah, you (G)never let the facts ruin a good story

(Verse 2)
Johnny (G)swears he used a wedge to hit a hole-in-one
He (G)came back just a bragginf ebout what hefd done
Think his (G)Philly saw it all, it never hit the green
You gotta (G)tweak the information before it hits the streets

(Pre-Chorus)
You gotta (D)keep it all away from the (F)judge and the jury
Nah, you (G)never let the facts ruin a good story

(Chorus)
Some (C)people make it up as they go along
They (G)pour it on thick, yeah they lay it on strong
You (D)add a little polish so it never gets boring
Nah, you (G)never let the facts ruin a good story

(Bridge)
Well, I (Am)never missed a ten point during the (?)
And I (C)made it every time I had a (?)
(Am)Mamas tell they youngins to not tell a lie
But (C)every now and then we stretch the (D)truth sometimes

You gotta (D)keep it all away from the (F)judge and the (C)jury
Nah, you (G)never let the facts ruin a (G) good story
