Verse:
Bb
I came in as the sun came up
Bb
She glared at me over her coffee cup
             Eb
She said, "Where've you been?" So I thought real hard
              Bb
And said, "I fell asleep in that hammock in the yard"
            F
She said, "You don't know it, boy, but you just blew it"
              Bb
Well I said "that's my story and I'm sticking to it."

Chorus:
Eb                                    Bb
That's my story                  Oh that's my story
        F
Well I ain't got a witness and I         can't prove it
     Bb
But that's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Verse:
Bb
I got that deer in the headlights look
Bb
She read my face like a cover of a book
             Eb
and said, "don't expect me to believe all that static
 Bb
Cause just last week I threw that hammock in the attic
    F
My skin got so thin you could see right through it
                 Bb
And I stuttered "that's my story and I'm stic-sticking to it"

Chorus:
Eb                                    Bb
That's my story                  Oh that's my story
        F
Well I ain't got a witness and I         can't prove it
     Bb
But that's my story and I'm sticking to it.


Bridge:
Bb  Ab  Eb  Bb

(You know the time comes when a wise man knows the best that he can do
Is just look her in the eye and beg for mercy and face the bitter truth)

Verse:
Bb
Honey me and boys played cards all night
Bb
No hanky panky not a woman in sight
   Eb
I know I should have called and baby I-I'm real sorry
Bb
Let's get a cellular phone and then you won't have to worry
     F
You know how much I love ya and darling I'm ready to prove it
Bb
That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Chorus:
Eb                                    Bb
That's my story                  Oh that's my story
        F
Well I ain't got a witness and I         can't prove it
     Bb
But that's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Outro:
         F
You know I ain't going to do a thing unless you approve it
       Bb
That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
