[Verse 1]
        E           B         A
I was sitting at a bar in New England
       E              B      E
I was thinking about another beer
            E            B       A
They had a lady playing on the piano
             E             B        E
Yeah, I was liking how it got to my ears
               E               B           A
Said, "Hey, I like it how you play that piano"
                E                B        E
She just said, "Honey, what are you doing here?"
                    E            B          A
I said, "Well, I'm sitting in a bar in New England
       E              B      E
I was thinking about another beer"


[Chorus]
           E     A B
She said, "Don't I know ya?
               A
Honey, don't I know ya?
               E
Honey, don't I know ya?"


[Verse 2]
                E          B            A
Hey, well, the very first time we laid eyes on you
      E          B   E
Your mama burst into tears
         E              B      A
We were shaking in the medical basement
             E              B      E
And I guess everything was all in arrears
       E              B           A
I was staring like a fool at the camera
              E                B        E
Just saying, "Honey, what are you doing here?"
                E          B           A
Hey, well, the very first time I laid eyes on you
      E           B   E
Your mama burst into tears


[Chorus]
         E     A B
I said, "Don't I know ya?
               A
Honey, don't I know ya?
               E
Honey, don't I know ya?"
     E     A B
"And don't I know ya?
               A
Honey, don't I know ya?
                                  E
Honey, don't I know ya?"

                   A
And honey, don't I know ya?
