I said howdy there lady
     C            G
This sure is some party
     C          G
I've never seen anything
     D
Like this before
         G
She said howdy there honey
     C           G
It's just barely started
       C                 G
But if you think this is something
     D
Just stand here some more

         G
Then she looked at me
         C            G
Then she laughed at me
                    D
Then she lifted her glass to me
        G                C       G
And the rest they say is history

I said that girl in the corner
C            G
She looks so pretty

Oh the girls all around her

She makes 'em look plain
G
Lady I need a drink
      C         G

    C            G
I'm hoping these bubbles
     D              G
They might know her name

         G
Well she looked at me
         C            G
Then she laughed at me
                    D
Then she lifted her glass to me
        G                C       G
And the rest they say is history

But when I returned
    C           G
Champagne in my hands
C               G
There stood two strangers
      D
Where we both did stand
        G
And the lady was gone
        C            G
And the evening wore on
        C           G
And the girl in the corner
    D       G
Was never alone

        G
But she looked at me
        C         G
And she smiled at me
                        D
But she turned her eyes away from me
        G                C       G
And the rest they say is history

Like a fine work of art

Melissa was sad

G
Debra had Pliny
C        G

     G
So I said my goodbyes
        C            G
When it came time to leave
    C           G
And as I walked out
        D
Someone pulled at my sleeve
         G                    C
She said honey we never did officially meet
C             G         D
But I sure am happy you came

              G
She said that girl in the corner
      C         G
She's more than pretty
    C                  G
And man you're not the first
        D
To look over her way
    G
But if you still wanted
  C          G
I could introduce you
    C                     G
But you never will be the same
 
         G
Then she looked at me
         C            G
Then she laughed at me
                    D
Then she lifted her glass to me
        G                C       G
And the rest they say is history
