E/G\E/G\E 
Lori laughs like she just don't care, Got a red bandana in her raven hair
E/G\E/G\E 
Sittin' in the corner at the Mercury, Cowboy killers in a plain white T
A 	  	 G 	                      A/G\A/G
_____ ________ glasses and a sleeve tattoos, She's just another small town kid
E/G\E/G\E 
Sure she's got a couple problems now, But she doedn't try to keep em hid
 	 
        D 	            A 	                     E/G\E/G\E
 	 That kind of lovin' is a little like a fist fight all right, all right
 	 D 	                      A 	        Bm
 	 The kind of thing you never see before midnight
        E       
 	 Girl I know your gonna wreck this town
        E
 	 Won't ya tell me where to be when the walls start fallin'

Well I've never seen Jimmy in that old Corvette
He looks like hell but he ain't dead yet
Rough around the edges but his clothes are clean
Hayseed dressed up like James Dean
And anyway I play it well I can't get in the sand
But I think that him and Lori were a thing
Well come now that I think about it, he don't say much of anything

 	 That kind of lovin' is a little like a fist fight(all right, all right)
 	 The kind of thing you never see before midnight
 	 Girl I know your gonna wreck this town
 	 Won't ya tell me where to be when the walls start fallin'

Well its 1 a.m. and wild and loud 
Like sittin in the middle of a funnel cloud
A 5 spot for a shot and a beer
Now do you wonder how we wound up here
I'll tell you friend that every now and then
It's like a money game of cut throat pool
Lori's talking just a little too sweet to me
Jimmy's in the next bar stool

 	 That kind of lovin' is a little like a fist fight(all right, all right)
 	 The kind of thing you never see before midnight
 	 Girl I know your gonna wreck this town
 	 Won't ya tell me where to be when the walls start fallin'

Well its throw back punks and daytime drunks
And PBR's and Stouts
Lori's over by the jukebox now dancin' to the twist and shout
And Jimmy's stormin' out the front door
Lord, you'd think someone had died
I ain't goin' anywhere at all, I'm about to hit my stride!

 	 That kind of lovin' is a little like a fist fight(all right, all right)
 	 The kind of thing you never see before midnight
 	 Girl I know your gonna wreck this town
 	 Won't ya tell me where to be when the walls start fallin'
 	 Girl I know your gonna wreck this town
 	 Won't ya tell me where to be when the walls start fallin'
 	 Girl I know your gonna wreck this town
 	 Won't ya tell me where to be when the walls start fallin'
 	 Girl I know your gonna wreck this town
 	 Won't ya tell me where to be when the walls start fallin' down

(I know it's not perfect, but it is FREE!!!!! Enjoy

Your Bm should be a B

And back before the glasses and a sleeve tattoos, She's just another small town kid
