Intro: (Em) (D) (Em) (D)
My (G) buddy said his girlfriend was as (D) pretty as can (G) be
He said (C) help a brother (G) out tonight and come double date with (D) me
She's (C) got a baby sister and they're (G) headed into (C) town
They're (G) lookin' for a good time and they're (D) fun to be ar(G)ound
I said (G) what do she look like?
He (D) scratched his head and (G) stated
"She was a (C) home comin' (G) football queen before she gradu(D)ated.
We'll (C) wine and dine and do 'em fine and (G) really double (C) date 'em
Then (G) take 'em back to the Motel 6 and (D) try to seper(G)ate 'em.
They (A) showed up in a pick up
They were (D) right on time
(A) His was kinda heafty
But not (D) half as big as mine
I'm runnin' (Em) block
(D) Turn the lights down low
Runnin' (Em) block
Don't (D) want know one to know
That I (G) tried to drink her skinny but she's (C) still about 21(A)5
Some(G)times you got to bow up
And (D) take one for the (G) team
She (G) cleaned her plate at dinner
Then she (D) ate what's left of (G) mine
Then she (C) wolfed down a big (G) cheesecake as I drank all the (D) wine
She (C) strolled out to the patio for an (G) after dinner (C) cig
I said (G) "Bro you done 'er this time and (D) gonna owe me big
You know why?
'Cuz my (A) brother's havin' a party
(D) Thought you outta know
He's got (A) coeds swimmin naked
The (D) reason I can't go
Is I'm runnin' (Em) block
(D) Turn the lights down low
Runnin' (Em) block
Sure don't (D) want know one to know
That I (G) tried to drink her skinny but she's (C) still about 21(A)5
Some(G)times you got to bow up
And (D) take one for the (G) team
When (G) we got back to the motel, (D) I kicked up my (G) feet
And she (C) put me in a (G) headlock and said, sunggle up with (D) me
My (C) buddy finished early and when (G) he walked through the (C) door
I was (G) layin' there half naked
She had me (D) pinned down to the fl(G)oor
Son, I (A) can't believe you caught me
(D) With this big ol' jelly roll
You'll (A) laugh at me tomorrow
YOu can't (D) ever tell a soul
That I'm runnin' (Em) block
(D) Turn the lights down low
Runnin' (Em) block
Don't (D) want know one to know
That I (G) tried to drink her skinny but she's (C) still about 21(A)5
Some(G)times you got to bow up
And just (D) take one for the (G) team

tab looks good, im strugglin with any kind of strum pattern, buts chords are great... song is even better, one of the best ever -gorillas68 | 3/13/2009 | This is too damn funny. Sadly, I can relate. I have been known to run block for my buddies. But at least I have true friends who will return the favor.
I saw Toby play this live and I sang along word for word. No one else in the group I was with had ever heard it before, but they busted their asses laughing at it. Toby has some funny songs, but this is the best one. -tpmadden | 4/29/2009 |
