She said, "I've seen you in here before."
A D
I said, "I been here a time or two."
G
She said, "Hello my name is Bobby Jo
A D
Meet my twin sister Betty Lou
G
And we're both feelin' kinda wild tonight
A D
You're the only cowboy in this place
E
And if you're up for a rodeo
A
I'll put a big Texas smile on your face."
I said "girls'"
(Chorus)
G
I ain't as good as I once was
A D
I got a few years on me now
G A
But there was a time back in my prime
D
When I could really lay it down
G
If you need some love tonight
A D A Bm
Then I might have just enough
G
I ain't as good as I once was
A G D
But I'm as good once as I ever was'
G
I still hang out with my best friend Dave
A D
I've known him since we were kids at school
G
Last night he had a few shots
A
Got in a tight spot
D
Hustlin' a game of pool
G
With a couple of redneck boys
A D
One great big, bad biker man
E
I heard David yell across the room
A
"Hey buddy, how 'bout a helpin' hand'"
I said 'Dave''
(Chorus)
G
I ain't as good as I once was
A D
My how the years have flown
G A
But there was a time back in my prime
D
When I could really hold my own
G
If you want to fight tonight
A D A Bm
Guess those boys don't look all that tough

I ain't as good as I once was
A G D
But I'm as good once as I ever was'
BRIDGE:
C
I used to be hell on wheels
G D
Back when I was a younger man
E
Now my body says you can't do this boy
A
But my pride says oh yes you can'
(Chorus)
G
I ain't as good as I once was
A D
That's just the cold hard truth
G A
I still throw a few backs, talk a little smack
D
When I'm feelin' bullet proof
G
So don't double dog dare me now
A D A Bm
Cause I'd have to call your bluff
G
I ain't as good as I once was
A G
But I'm as good once as I ever was
D G
May not be good as I once was
A G D
But I'm as good once as I ever was'
