  E                         A
I hate to go searchin’ them bars again
B7                     E
Picking up bruises and scars again
       E                 A
But if I can’t have you, that’s what I’ll do
  B7                        A     E
I hate to go searchin’ them bars again


       E                     A
You’re just what I had on my mind
    E                        B7
And girl you weren’t easy to find
    E                       A
But love, like justice, sometimes can be blind
        E             B7           E
Oh, You can’t seem to make up your mind

Chorus

I could get to drinking too much
In search of a soft loving touch
Their smile's are too quick and the music's too loud
Honey, don’t send me back to that crowd

Chorus
