This is the best way to play this song I think...

G, D, Em, D, C, G, Am



G                                            D                        
Well, me an' my lady had our first big fight,
Em                                           D                         
So I drove around 'til I saw the neon light.
C                                            G     
A corner bar, an it just seemed right.
     Am
So I pulled up.
G                                      D 
Not a soul around but the old bar keep,
Em                                       D
Down at the end an' looking half asleep.
C                                        G
An he walked up, an' said : "What'll it be?"
        Am
I said: "The good stuff."

C                                               G (Quick three strum)
He didn't reach around for the whiskey;
C                             G
He didn't pour me a beer.
C                                       G
His blue eyes kinda went misty,
               Am
He said: "You can't find that here.



G                                   D
'Cause it's the first long kiss on a second date.
Em                                             D
Momma's all worried when you get home late.
C                                          G  
And droppin' the ring in the spaghetti plate,
                     Am   
'Cause your hands are shakin' so much.
G                                                           D
An' it's the way that she looks with the rice in her hair.
Em                                       D
n' eatin' burnt suppers, the whole first year,
C                         G                    Am, Am(2 frets up), asus, D
An' askin' for seconds to keep her from tearin' up.
                                  G, D, Em, D, C, G, Am,
Yeah, man, that's the good stuff.


G                                    D
He grabbed a carton of milk an' her poured a glass.
Em                               D
An' I smiled an' said: "I'll have some of that." 
C                                           G
We sat there an' talked as an hour passed,
Am
Like old friends.


G                                                      D
I saw a black an' white picture an' it caught my stare,
Em                                D
It was a pretty girl with bouffant hair.
C                      
He said: "That's my Bonnie,
G                                   Am
"Taken 'bout a year after we were wed."



C                                                  G
He said: "Spent five years in the bottle,
C                                                  G
"When the cancer took her from me.
C                                                   G
"But I've been sober three years now,
              Am
"'Cause the one thing stronger than the whiskey:


G                                                  D
"Was the sight of her holdin' my baby girl.
Em                                    D
"The way she adored that string of pearls,
C                                            G
"I gave her the day that our youngest boy, Earl,
Am
"Married his high school love."

G                                            D
"An' it's a new tee-shirt saying: 'I'm a Grandpa'.
Em                                     D
"Bein' right there as our time got small,
C                                 G    Am, Am(2 frets up), asus, D
"An' holdin' her hand, when the Good Lord called her up,
                       G, D, Em, D, C, G, Am,
"Yeah, man, that's the good stuff."
C                                                G
He said: "When you get home, she'll start to cry.
C                                             G
"When she says: 'I'm sorry,' say: 'So am I.'
C                                              G
"An' look into those eyes, so deep in love,
Am, Am(2 frets up), asus, D
"An' drink it up.
                   G, D, Em, D, C, G, Am,
"'Cause that's the good stuff.
"That's the good stuff.
