G
1.I'm tired of sittng home, sick of being all alone
C
Thought I'd just go for a drive
D
I was headed downtown, when I did me a turnaround
G
When I saw the neon sign
Happy hour two for one, sounded like a lot of fun
C
So I stopped and went inside
D
The next thing that I knew, I was sittin' on a barstool
G
Having the time of my life
G C
C.Well, I had more silver bullets last night than the Lone Ranger
D G
I was shootin' 'em down like I didn't have a care, ignoring all the danger
G C
Bless my soul this morning I awoke in the arms of a perfect stranger
D G
I had more silver bullets last night than the Lone Ranger
2.Did I fail to mention it wasn't my intention
To stay out all night long
I was gonna have a few but one round led to two
Next thing I knew I was gone
Well here's where I draw a blank, the band was playin' Hank
She rode in to save the day
And all I remember were kisses sweet and tender
And hi yo silver away
C.
