  			D            D7          G                   D 
Once I had a little girl as pretty as I have known 
D                                         E           A 
Lord you know I loved her so and then she left me all alone 
G                        D 
And I swore here on this barstool 
                    D7      G 
I'd never make that mistake again 
                           D 
Well you ain't so fine but you're all mine 
         A                 D  
And I'll love you till the end 
   G                 D 
So darling don't you worry cause they 
G                D 
Say that love is blind 
G                     D 
Lust has eyes like an eagle 
           E                  A  
It's gonna drive me out of my mind 
          G              D 
Though my eyes sometimes wander  
                           G 
It doesn't mean that I'm untrue 
                                   D          A     D 
You're not the best but you're the best that  I can do 
 
D  G  D  A  D  G  D 
  
D                      D7 
You know a pretty girl she'll leave you 
G                              D 
Leave you to drown in your own tears 
D 
You know an ugly girl she'll leave you too 
    E                     A 
But then again who really cares 
            G                 D 
And then my eyes of blue they cannot be true 
                                G 
They'll have to stay here in my dreams 
                       D                    A           D 
I guess that's why old Hugh Hefner invented Playboy magazine 
D                D7 
So sit down here beside me girl 
           G                     D 
And I will tell you what we will do 
 
We're gonna  twist them lids and hope 
              E                 A 
Our kids look more like me than you 
              G                 D 
And when that bottle is finally empty 
                              G 
We're gonna tumble across the floor 
                            D 
And I'm gonna pray my imagination is 
      A                    D  
Gonna pull me through once more 
   G                 D 
So darling don't you worry cause they 
G                D 
Say that love is blind 
G                     D 
Lust has eyes like an eagle 
           E                  A  
It's gonna drive me out of my mind 
          G              D 
Though my eyes sometimes wander  
                          G 
It doesn't mean that I'm untrue 
                                   D          A     D  D7 
You're not the best but you're the best that  I can do 
               G                   D          A     D  
You're not the best but you're the best that  I can do 
 
G  D  A  D  G  D  A  D
