[Intro]
|D  |D  |G  |G  | x2


[Verse 1]
    D           D/F#        D/F#           DHer mama always told her to hold out for a good man
D/F#           D         D/F#             DSounded like a good plan all those years ago
G  A little house with a picket fence
G  Simple life with a couple kids
       Bm                              ABut tonight she's just looking for a shoulder


[Chorus 1]
        D/F#        GShe was hoping for pink champagne
           DBut she'll settle for well whiskey
       GSaw herself in a long white gown
    DNot downtown gettin' tipsy
         BmAnd that one-night stand walking through the door
          G                                D/F#  GAin't the marrying kind, yeah that's for sure
                  D      D/F#  GBut she's gettin' older
                      DAnd the bar's gettin' lower


[Verse 2]
    D               D/F#         D/F#               DHer dreams are disappearing like smoke from his cigarette
    D/F#         D              D/F#         DShe hasn't said "Yes" but she's thinking she might
    GThe closer it gets to closing time
  GA lonely heart will take a pick-up line
Bm                               AAnything to get her through the night


[Chorus 2]
        D/F#        GShe was hoping for pink champagne
           DBut she'll settle for well whiskey
       GSaw herself in a long white gown
    DNot downtown gettin' tipsy
         BmAnd that drunk cowboy tellin' her lies
          G                       D/F#  GAin't the John Wayne she had in mind
                  D      D/F#  GBut she's gettin' older
                      DAnd the bar's gettin' lower


[Interlude]
|G  |G  |D  |D  |


[Chorus 3]
          BmShe could thank you for the drink and walk away
G  Live to love another day
      D              D/F#  GBut she's gettin' older
                        Bm      A  GAnd the night's gettin' colder

And the bar's gettin' lower
