1.I'm tired of sittng home, sick of being all alone 
                              C 
  Thought I'd just go for a drive 
  D 
  I was headed downtown, when I did me a turnaround 
                       G 
  When I saw the neon sign 
    
  Happy hour two for one, sounded like a lot of fun 
                           C  
  So I stopped and went inside 
  D 
  The next thing that I knew, I was sittin' on a barstool 
                         G 
  Having the time of my life 
 
  G                                                  C 
C.Well, I had more silver bullets last night than the Lone Ranger 
          D                                                            G 
  I was shootin' 'em down like I didn't have a care, ignoring all the danger 
    G                                                            C 
  Bless my soul this morning I awoke in the arms of a perfect stranger 
    D                                                   G  
  I had more silver bullets last night than the Lone Ranger 
 
2.Did I fail to mention it wasn't my intention 
  To stay out all night long 
  I was gonna have a few but one round led to two 
  Next thing I knew I was gone 
  Well here's where I draw a blank, the band was playin' Hank 
  She rode in to save the day 
  And all I remember were kisses sweet and tender 
  And hi yo silver away
