And I D6feel so good that I'm not quite F#m7myself,
Now they're Gmaj7telling Eme that I gotta find someplace Aelse.
(Well, guess what?)
[Chorus]
D6I didn't come here, and Bm7I ain't A7leavin',
I've been Ethrown into better places than Athis,
D6I didn't come here, so Bm7I ain't A7leavin',
If you Ewanna pucker up I got Bm7just the place for you to A7kiss.
AWell I spent my last dollar and drank up my last dime,
Now D7they're acting like having fun is Bmsome Am6kind of A7crime
If it will Emake you feel better, mister,
I'll tell you one more Atime.B7  C6

Why Edon't you pucker up I got Bm7just the place for you to A7kissBm7.A7
