Ab
Ab Bb Db Ab
[Verse 1]
AbI met her last year at a rockabilly sBbhow
The bands weren't very good
But they nDbever, they never really Abare
AbSometimes you get in the mood
To capture somethBbing that's been lost
Or something you Dbnever, you never really Abhad
[Chorus 1]
FmBut there I was anyway
I was hiding in the Ebbushes outside
Drinking cFmheap wine
Just like I used to Ebdo when I was a Bbkid
DbYeah, when I was a kAbidAb  
[Verse 2]
AbShe was hiding out from an ex-boyfriend
Who was at the sBbhow with another girl
She's been Dbdodging them all night lAbong
AbI offered her some wine
And she finished Bboff the entire bottle
I spent a Dblot of time with her after tAbhat
[Chorus 2]
FmBut there I was anyway
I was hiding in the Ebbushes outside
Drinking cFmheap wine
Just like I used to Ebdo when I was a Bbkid
DbYeah, when I was a AbkidAb

When FmI, when AbI was a Ebkid
When FmI, when AbI, when FmI, when DbI
When FmI, when AbI was a Ebkid
