🎸 Verse 1:
A               E
  I had already stopped by the bait shop
B
Filled up the cooler and the tank and the tackle box
A                         E
Weatherman callin' for cloudy and eighty-two
B
  Sun down, it's a full moon
A                  E                 B
  I had myold red Ranger all shined up

My good rods and a better day lined up
A                 E
  I was ready to go
B
And it turned out she was too

🎸 Chorus:
   E/G#      A                          E
So now I'm sittin' in a bar instead of fishin' on a river
B                            C#m         B
Wettin' my whistle 'stead of wettin' my line
A                        E
Catchin' me a buzz, not catchin' me a bass
        B                          C#m      B
Runnin' up the tab instead of that Mercury 25
C#m                   B
I don't know where it all went wrong
     A            E
But all I know is that girl's gone
      A
And a honey hole ain't gonna help me forget her
       B
So I'm sittin' in a bar instead of fishin' on a river

A
Took her things, left me nothin' but them tail lights
                          E                   B
They say the neon and the jukebox helps the leavin'
                       E/G#
And that's the reason that I'm
