IT'S BEEN A GREAT AFTERNOON (Merle Haggard)
MCA Records
[A] Last night we had a hell raisin' time
[D] Nippin' on tequila and suckin' on [A] limes
Sunrise chased the good time [D7] away
And good [B7] morning would have been the wrong [E7] thing to say
'Cause the [A] poundin' in the top of my head
Hey [D] didn't leave me any too [A] soon
I can't say we've had a good [B7] morning
But [D7] babe it's been a [E7] great after[A]noon
Well you [D] nursed me through the morning while [A] I was really
down
Then one [B7] rowdy afternooner got me [E7] up and around
Yes last [A] night we had one hell raisin' time
But [D] today won't be forgotten too [A] soon
I can't say we've had a good [B7] morning
Oh but [D7] babe it's been a [E7] great after[A]noon, yes sir
(break)
Well you [D] nursed me through the morning while [A] I was really
down
Then one [B7] rowdy afternooner got me [E7] up and around
Yes last [A] night we had one hell raisin' time, he he
But [D] today won't be forgotten too [A] soon
I can't say we've had a good [B7] morning
But [D7] dang it's been a [E7] great after[A]noon
