As Good As I Once Was
I've seen this mdone with the same chord with a capo on two, but I like it better this
way, trey both and see wich you like better.
INTRO:
VERSE:
She said, "I seen you in here before."
I said, "I been here a time or two."
She said,"Hello my name is Bobby Jo,
meet my twin sister betty lou.
And we're both feelin' kinda wild tonight,
you're the only cowboy in this place.
And if you're up for a rodeo,
I'll put a big texas smile on your face."
I said "girls....."
CHORUS:
I ain't as good as I once was
I got a few years on me now
But there was a time, back in my prime
When I could really lay it down
If you need some love tonight
Then I might have just enough
I ain't as good as I once was,
But I'm as good, once, as I ever was
BREAK
VERSE:
I still hang out with my best friend Dave
I've known him since we were kids at school
Last night he had a few shots,
Got in a tight spot
Hustlin' a game of pool
With a couple of redneck boys
One great big fat biker man
I David yell across the room
"Hey buddy, how bout a helpin' hand?"
I said Dave.....
CHORUS:
I ain't as good as I once was
My how the years have flown
But there was a time, back in my prime
When I could really hold my own
If you want to fight tonigh
Guess those boys don't look all that tough
I ain't as good as I once was,
But I'm as good, once, as I ever was
BRIDGE:
I used to be hell on wheels
Back when I was a younger man
Now my body say's you can't do this boy
But my pride say's oh yes you can
CHORUS:
I ain't as good as I once was
Thats just the cold hard truth
I still throw a few back, talk a little smack
When I'm feelin bullet proof
So don't double dog dare me now
Cause I'd have to call your bluff
I ain't as good as I once was,
But I'm as good, once, as I ever was
TURNAROUND
Hey, I ain't as good as I once was
But I'm as good, once, as I ever was
ENDING
