BbShe said, "Hello, my name is Bobby Jo.
C FMeet my twin sister Betty Lou.
BbAnd we're both feeling kinda wild tonight.
C FYou're the only cowboy in this place.
GAnd if you're up for a rodeo.
C7 CI'll put a big Texas smile on your face.”
I said, "Girls," Chorus 1
BbI ain't as good as I once was

C Bb Am Gm FBut I'm as good once as I ever was
Interlude Bb C F Fsus F Verse 2
BbI still hang out with my best friend Dave
C FI’ve known him since we were kids at school
BbLast night he had a few shots
C FGot in a tight spot hustlin' a game of pool
BbWith a couple of redneck boys
C FOne great big, bad biker man
GI heard David yell across the room
C7"Hey buddy, how 'bout a helping hand."
CI said, "Dave,"
Chorus 2
BbI ain't as good as I once was

Bb CBut there was a time back in my prime
FWhen I could really hold my own

GmI ain't as good as I once was
C Bb Am Gm FBut I'm as good once as I ever was
Bridge
Eb Bb/DI used to be hell on wheels
FBack when I was younger man
G7Now my body says, "You can't do this, boy."
C7 CBut my pride says, "Oh, yes you can.”
Chorus 3
BbI ain't as good as I once was
C FThat’s just the cold, hard truth
Bb CI still throw a few back, talk a little smack
FWhen I'm feelin’ bullet proof
BbSo don't double dog dare me now
C F C/E Dm 'Cause I'd have to call your bluff
GmI ain't as good as I once was
C Bb Am Gm FBut I'm as good once as I ever was
BbMay not be good as I once was
C Bb But I'm as good once as I ever was
