Capo 2

    G
You used to run the tables every Friday night
       G
Just a good ol' boy doin' whatever he likes
        Bb
Used to smoke like a freight train, drink like a fish
      G
Oh, I never seen you walk a tightrope like this

        G
Oh, but ever since you met that hot little thing
G
Boy, you just ain't quite been the same
      Bb
She's got you by her side or she's got you on the phone
G
Askin' when you're gonna get your butt back home


Chorus:
                    C                     G
Yeah, she's got you chewing gum 'stead of smoking smokes
C                           G
Sippin' green tеa 'stead of Jack and Coke
C                         G                       D
Talkin' Sunday church and only telling good clеan jokes
                        G
She's got you walking a tightrope

We used to spend Saturday's out on a boat
Catch a beer buzz while the bobbers float
Now it's yard sales and honey do's all weekend
Instead of tailgates and football with your friends

Chorus

Solo


Bridge:
               Bb
You say you're feelin' better now that you're all clean up
            C                             D
You're even talking about tradin' in your pickup truck

Chorus

Outro:
She's got you walking a tightrope
She's got you walking a tightrope
She's got you walking a tightrope
