(Intro)  
  
G D C G C G C  
  
G                           D  
Well me and my lady had our first big fight,  
C                                G  
So I drove around till I saw the neon lights,   
C                        G                        C G C  
At a corner bar, and it just seemed right, so I pulled up,  
G                              D  
Not a soul around but the ol' barkeep,  
C                       G  
Down at the end lookin half asleep,  
C                          G                          C G C  
But he walked up and said what'll it be? I said the Good Stuff,  
C                               D       C                    D  
He didn't reach around for the whiskey, He didn't pour me a beer,   
C                        D  
His blue eyes kinda went misty,   
C  
Said you can't find that here,  
  
      G                              D  
Cause it's the first long kiss on a second date  
C                            G  
Mamma's all worried when you get home late  
     C                        G  
And droppin the ring in the spaghetti plate,   
C           G                    C     D  
Cause your hands are shaking so much  
   G                         D  
It's the way she looks with rice in her hair  
C                        G  
Eatin burnt suppers the whole first year  
C                          G                 C G C  
And askin for seconds, to keep her from tearin up,  
     D               G  D C G C  
Yeah man that's the Good Stuff  
  
G                                D  
He grabbed a carton of milk and poured a glass  
C                       G  
I smiled and said I'll have some of that  
C                              G                    C G C  
We sat there and talked as an hour passed like ol' friends  
G                                     D  
Saw a black and white picture and it caught my stare  
C                               G      
Was a pretty girl with bouffant hair  
        C                  G                         C G C  
He said that's my Bonnie, takin bout a year after we wed  
        C                        D               C                   D  
He said spent five years in the bottle when the cancer took her from me  
     C                          D  
I've been sober for three years now,   
     C              G                 C     D  
Cause the one thing stronger than the whiskey was the  
  
     G                    D  
The sight of her holdn my baby girl  
     C                   G               
The way she adored that string of pearls   
   C                         G  
I gave her the day that our youngest boy Earl   
C                 G        C    D  
Married his high school love  
G                             D  
And it's a new T-shirt sayin I'm a Grand Pa  
C                                 G  
Being right there as our time got small  
    C                           G                C G C  
And holding her hand, when the good lord called her up  
     D               G D C G C  
Yeah man that's the Good Stuff  
  
G D C G C  
  
        D                         G  
He said when you get home she'll start to cry  
      D                      G  
When she says I'm sorry, say so am I  
     G    D           C      D       C  
And look into those eyes so deep in love   
     D  
And drink it up  
       G               D   C G C  
Cause that's the Good Stuff  
 G          D       C G C  
That's the Good Stuff  
  
  
  
That's all there is to it folks!  Just listen to the song for the chord progression to get it right.
