Hey pretty baby are you ready for me

Nothin' ever happened 'round my hometown

Everybody told me you can't get far

On thirty-seven dollars and a jap guitar

Hey pretty baby don't you know it ain't my fault
C G
I love to hear the steel belts hummin' on the asphalt

Wake up in the middle of the night in a truck stop
C D7 (or D)
Stumble in the restaurant wonderin' why I don't stop
G
Gotta keep rockin' why I still can
C (riff) A|--3-2-0~
I gotta two pack habit and a motel tan
D
But when my boots hit the boards I'm a brand new man
C
With my back to the riser I make my stand (drums stop)

Hey pretty baby won't you hold me tight

We're loadin' up and rollin' out of here tonight

One of these days I'm gonna settle down

And take you back with me to the Guitar Town

~ means to let the note ring
Note: The lead parts in this song are played on a Baritone Guitar. So I dropped
D tuned to get a similiar effect. This should be pretty close. Kudos to the
other submitter, I used a lot of his tab and lowered the Octive to make it sound
closer to the recording. The last bend on the open A string is a "behind the nut
bend" I think. If you listen to it slowed way down there is definitely a bend
there.
