I've never seen anything
     D

She said howdy there honey
     C           G
It's just barely started
       C                 G
But if you think this is something
     D
Just stand here some more

         G
Then she looked at me
         C            G
Then she laughed at me
                    D
Then she lifted her glass to me
        G                C       G

They might know her name

Well she looked at me
         C            G
Then she laughed at me
                    D
Then she lifted her glass to me
        G                C       G
